This is a funny way to frame mass indefinite home detention, filthy quarantine centers, and the many, many reports of people not having enough to eat, and deaths from lack of access to medical care.

Did you know that only residents with official permission to be in Shanghai are getting food? What do you think is happening to everyone else?

And even those are only nominally getting food. For every account of the Shanghai lockdown that includes regular food delivery, there are 5 accounts showing that their food delivery has been a packet of noodles and some cooking oil, once every two weeks.

Then everyone would be dead, so clearly this is not true.

Only if that's the only source of food.

The point is, contrary to this article, government food deliveries are nowhere close to enough.

Depends on the timeframe

There are many stories about people dying in the waiting room because they had to wait for their covid test to come back negative before ERs in Shanghai were allowed to treat them.
