China’s Zero-Covid Policy Exposed, Scant Regard for Human Rights

In the name of zero-Covid policy, Chinese authorities' excesses on common people are increasing each passing day. Netizens are enraged after a video from China emerged in which a woman is pinned down by a man for a Covid swab test. 

In this video which is gaining traction on Twitter, the woman is seen lying down on the floor of what appears to be a testing centre with a man sitting  on top of her. She could be heard screaming and trying to resist the test being done forcibly but the man overpowers her and lets the health personnel swab her mouth and nose. Sakshi Post can’t vouch for the authenticity of the video and also the location of the video is also unverifiable.
