The latest virus outbreak also highlights the hard lives of millions of migrant workers. The censors are alarmed.
Beijing’s youngest line of infection started with a 34-year-old man: Fu lives in the sad working-class district of Shunyi, far from the city center. To inform the citizens of the city about the possible risks of infection, the authorities published the 14-day exercise profile of Fu and all other infected people. Inadvertently, they gave insight into the harsh daily lives of migrant workers, who make up a third of Beijing’s more than 21 million people.
Every morning, Fu commuted to work by bus and subway for more than an hour and a half, ate at inexpensive pasta restaurants in the evening, and studied for the extra-occupational master’s entrance exam at night. During the weekends, the Chinese accompanied their son to private classes and went shopping. “He is an exemplary worker out of a textbook: 34 years old, not a useless hobby,” comments a Zhihu app user: “After reading his movement profile, I cried. Even if I’ve never met him, I pay my respect to him. ” Another Internet user writes: “That is normal daily life in Beijing. Many are like him. “
