U.S. Marines Stationed in Shanghai Struggling for Food Due to Destructive “Zero-COVID” Lockdown

The CCP’s brutal “Zero-COVID” lockdown is starving Shanghai residents.

Some citizens have jumped to their deaths in desperation after being quarantined inside their homes for weeks at a time with scarce resources.

The self-inflicted resource shortage is even impacting U.S. Marines at the U.S. consulate in Shanghai.

Per Reuters:

Shanghai has been hit by food shortages as the citywide lockdown puts pressure on delivery staff amid surging COVID-19 numbers.

A U.S. consulate employee issued a plea on the WeChat platform on Tuesday for staff to spare some food for the Marines. He was not acting in an official capacity, a person with knowledge of the matter said.

"Marines have depleted their food and can no longer get delivery," the employee told colleagues living in Shanghai.

The Marines only had vacuum-sealed rations left, the employee said in the message, seen by Reuters and verified by two people.

"I know we are all running short on supplies. If you can spare a meal's worth or two for 7 extra mouths, they'd be very appreciative," the employee said.

Staff responded with supplies, a person said in a later message, adding: "The marines are beyond thankful."

Recent footage from Shanghai showed thousands of residents screaming from their apartments due to starvation from strict quarantines.
