This round of lockdown is supposed to end at 5th. But typically a new round of lockdown would be announced before or shortly after the end of the last one.

Rumor is this is going to be the last mass test before opening up and the officials were given an open up deadline of 6PM April 5th by the central gov. (Sure looks like it, friend of mine who lives near the airport has been seeing loads military transport aircrafts landing one after another yesterday) We’ll see if the rumor is true in 13 hours.

I don’t really see why they would keep doing mass tests unless they kept discovering new cases. I’m sure the average person in Shanghai has been tested for at least 6 times in the past 2 weeks at this point.
