On 25 March 2020, the academician of the Communist Party of China, Li Lanjuan, warned of the second wave of COVID-19 outbreaks and named five cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hangzhou as high-risk areas. On the same day, two photographs of an emergency medical support team from Nantong to Shanghai were posted online.

One photograph was shot at the scene of Nantong Health System's "Emergency mobilization of reinforcements to set off for Shanghai ". The date of the payment on the background screen is suspected to be 25 March 2020. The other one is a group photo of the Qidong City People's Hospital's Shanghai Medical Team Farewell Party in a county-level city under Nantong.

According to Chinese self-media, these foreign aid medical teams may support Shanghai Pudong International Airport, because on 25 March, Shanghai officially stated that there were 18 cases of "foreign imported cases", and the pressure of "foreign imported defense" increased. In addition, international flights to Beijing were diverted to 12 cities including Shanghai and Tianjin a few days ago, and Pudong Airport also added entry channels for diverted flights to Beijing.

However, many netizens believe that the statement of "supporting Pudong Airport" may be to wash the ground for the official and cover up the fact that the epidemic in Shanghai has worsened.

In fact, the China Communist Party officially announced on 26 March that foreigners will be prohibited from entering mainland China from 28 March 2020. At the same time, Chinese airlines are limited to one flight per week per country, and each foreign airline is only allowed to fly to China once a week, and the passenger capacity of the flight cannot exceed 75 per cent. This shows that the quarantine pressure at Shanghai Airport will be reduced, not increased.

In addition, in the official report of the Communist Party of China, newly confirmed cases in China have been cleared for several consecutive days, and they have appeared again a few days ago. The number of "foreign imported cases" has also increased. At the same time, Li Lanjuan warned in a “People’s Daily” interview that “the situation is severe” and “very worried that imported cases will cause the second major epidemic in China” and pointed out five "High risk" cities Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hangzhou.
