One case of Covid-19 in Beijing has aroused widespread sympathy online after the 44-year old migrant worker’s recent movements were published for disease control purposes.
The record shows that Beijing’s first person infected with the delta variant this year had worked in dozens of places over 18 days, mostly late at night, and hardly visited any places to eat. From quarantine, he told state-run news magazine China News Week that he had been working in Beijing to search for his lost eldest son.
