1. The latest news on the lifting of the lockdown of Shanghai epidemic communities in 2022

On the evening of March 17, a community near Xintiandi in Shanghai was unsealed after 48 hours of nucleic acid testing. A resident of the community said that he lived comfortably during the closed management period and that it did not have a major impact on retired people.

2. When will the Shanghai epidemic communities be fully unsealed in 2022?

According to Shanghai's epidemic prevention and control regulations, it usually takes about 14 days for Shanghai's closed management communities to be unsealed. Of course, this time period is premised on the effective control of the epidemic, with no new local and asymptomatic confirmed cases. Usually, closed management measures will be implemented in the community only when confirmed cases or patients with positive nucleic acid tests appear.

Under strict epidemic prevention and control measures, the epidemic in Shanghai has been effectively controlled. The first batch of closed communities have begun to be unsealed. The closure time was February 28 and the unsealing time was March 14. I believe that more and more communities will be lifted from the blockade in the future. The specific time will be subject to official notification.
