In 'zero-Covid' China, a daughter's struggle to get her father medicine hits a nerve
CNN
What was meant to be a simple errand, a daughter driving her aging father to the hospital to pick up his medicine, has pulled a small city on China's border with North Korea -- and its nearly two-month Covid-19 lockdown -- into the national spotlight, after the pair ran afoul of pandemic rules.
Video of the scene -- whose related hashtag has been viewed over a billion times on China's Twitter-like platform Weibo -- shows a confrontation between the driver, identified by police as a 41-year-old woman surnamed Hao, her father and a local police officer, who stopped Hao at a security checkpoint because she did not have proper clearance.
