Videos of people being dragged from their homes by health workers in hazmat suits coursed through Chinese social media late Sunday before being pulled down on some platforms, as the city’s intensive lockdown enters its seventh week.

The videos – which purported to show Covid-19 positive patients and their close contacts tussling with the workers – come as the city tightens some aspects of the lockdown despite a drop-off in new cases. People living in the same building of confirmed cases now also risk being transported to designated quarantine facilities, according to local residents and widely circulated social media posts.

Social media posts questioning the legality of forcibly removing people from their homes and taking them to quarantine facilities, or seizing their keys to allow health workers to disinfect apartments have also been removed.One video that is still available appeared to show two “Big Whites,” as the healthcare workers who enforce China’s lockdowns and Covid regulations are known, dragging away a woman kicking and screaming in a residential compound.
