Xinjiang is currently implementing strict measures to lock down the city, causing people to suffer. One person said that female prisoners in detention camps must strip off their clothes and spray disinfectant every week; residents who are quarantined at home are locked from the door with a lock and cannot get out; the quarantine can last more than 40 days, and even if the virus test is negative, they cannot end the quarantine period. Those who did not cooperate were arrested. In addition, the authorities also forced the people to drink unverified Chinese medicine.

The lockdown measures taken by the Xinjiang authorities have lasted 45 days. The Associated Press said that based on official announcements, media, and interviews with three quarantined people in Xinjiang, some of the local government’s practices were called by experts to violate medical ethics, and some residents were threatened to take traditional Chinese medicines that had not undergone strict clinical testing.

A middle-aged Uyghur woman told the Associated Press that she was detained during the peak of the epidemic in China and felt weak and sick after being forced to drink a Chinese medicine. She and the cellmates in the same cell had to take off their clothes once a week and asked the guards to spray their bodies and cells with disinfectant.

The woman said, "There is a burning sensation in the skin. My hands were destroyed and my skin began to fall off."

The Uyghur woman told the Associated Press that she was released and returned home after being detained for more than a month, and was quarantined when she arrived home. She said that community workers came once a day to force her to take Chinese medicine in white bottles without any signs. She said that if she did not drink, she would be detained again.

The authorities also said that these measures were taken for the benefit of all residents in Xinjiang. For decades, the Chinese Communist government has tried every means to control Xinjiang people. Uyghurs hate the authorities' high-handed methods.

The Voice of America reported that surveillance equipment was widely used in Xinjiang's closed city, and the more than 1 million Uyghurs, Kazakhs and other ethnic minorities in the detention camps are all under surveillance.

According to the report, the treatment of Han Chinese is actually not good. This month, thousands of Han Chinese complained on social media that the authorities' anti-epidemic measures were too excessive. Internet photos showed that some residents were handcuffed to the railing, and the door of the house was locked with a lock.

A Han businessman told the Associated Press that he had been quarantined since mid-July. Although he tested negative for the virus, the authorities still refused to let him out. After he disclosed his situation online, the authorities ordered him to delete his posts and was told to remain silent.

The businessman said on Weibo in mid-August, “The most terrible thing is to remain silent.” “Long-term silence will lead you to the abyss of despair.”

He posted on Weibo again a few days later, saying: "How long I stayed in this room, I don't remember. I just want to forget everything."

He was also forced to take the liquid Chinese medicine called Lianhua Qingwen that the Xinjiang woman had used.

Lianhua Qingwen is a Chinese herbal medicine, which contains high concentrations of toxins and carcinogens. It is a medicinal material banned by Germany, Switzerland, the United States and other countries. It is often seized by the US customs. The US FDA has determined that this drug is deceptive and has no therapeutic effect on the CCP virus. It is purely a deception.

Earlier, a citizen living in Urumqi told Radio Free Asia, “There are three medicines I know, Lotus Qingwen, Chinese medicine granules, and canned Chinese medicine. The compulsory drinking is all canned Chinese medicine. It is required to take photos three times a day. In the hair group. I have friends who have vomiting and diarrhea after taking the medicine. (The community) also publicly threatened that if the medicine is not taken according to the standard, it will affect the child’s going out of Xinjiang and the child’s education."

Mr. He, a resident of Xinjiang who did not want to be named, told Radio Free Asia that although Xinjiang carried out strict prevention and control during the last outbreak, public opinion has responded more and more negatively to the new round of "shock-style" epidemic prevention management.

He said: "Last time was because of the New Year, it was in winter. Tourism and agriculture are basically idle or low peak periods. Now July and August, various industries have been hit hard. Many people have loans. No fruit can be harvested. The civil service system is also very tired, because there has been no stopping work."

The Xinjiang epidemic is mainly concentrated in Urumqi. Mr. He mentioned that the epidemic prevention measures in Xinjiang are stricter than those in Wuhan, the hardest-hit area, and even areas without cases are also blocked.

Regarding the Xinjiang government's "iron-fisted" epidemic prevention measures, residents of a residential area in Urumqi chose to open a window to collectively vent it. The result was classified as an illegal act or "inflammatory activity", and some people were also interviewed by the public security. In addition, netizens who have posted on the Internet to disclose the situation also said that they have received a police report from the authorities asking them to delete the posts.

Mr. He condemned the authorities for not only failing to solve the problem, but also suppressing the influence of online public opinion. He described Xinjiang as a "prison" controlled by high pressure.
