China's a 'Granny Squadron'

Shanghai is currently functioning a bit like a roach motel, or the hotel california delivery. People can check in, but checking back out not so much. There are also areas going through what's directly translated as silent periods which they just go back into full lock down with no deliveries for a few days. Other parts of the city remain under much stricter lockdown. Nota this is done much more by the community committee than any national city or even district tier of government. It really is ironic that for all the external positioning of there just being one china, it's all totally atomized. Really an't even bank outside the city.
