As Guangxi reports 268 confirmed COVID-19 cases, including 267 in Baise City, residents under lockdown are navigating new systems to secure daily essentials. A local video report offers a glimpse into life under quarantine, revealing how families source groceries, medicine, and supplies.
The footage highlights streamlined delivery channels coordinated by neighborhood committees. Residents order items like vegetables, eggs, and hygiene products via community WeChat groups, with volunteers distributing packages door-to-door. Prices for staples such as eggs (6.70 yuan per 500g) and pork (18 yuan per 500g) remain stable, per the video's data.
Authorities emphasize sufficient stockpiles at major markets, with over 1,200 metric tons of veggies and 430 tons of meat available daily. A Baise official stated: 'We're prioritizing vulnerable groups, including seniors and medical workers' families, through targeted supply chains.'
While some residents report minor delays in non-essential goods, most describe the system as 'efficient given the circumstances.' The city has mobilized 3,800 delivery personnel and 670 vehicles to sustain logistics amid movement restrictions.
