China Covid: 'The three years of the pandemic was his whole life'

A Chinese father has told the BBC how a lockdown in his city delayed potentially life-saving treatment for his three-year-old son who had become ill after a suspected gas leak.

"The three years of the pandemic was his whole life," one woman is heard shouting at the line of police in the footage.The ambulance never arrived After his wife's status improved, he soon found that his son Wenxuan who was sleeping had lost consciousness. Despite receiving CPR, the three-year-old remained unconscious but was still breathing.

But this did little to alleviate public anger over what they said was a slow response by epidemic control staff and paramedics. By Wednesday evening topics related to Wenxuan's death had been viewed 800 million times on China's microblogging platform Weibo.
