Rumor: Shanghai will undergo militarized management. Two soldiers will stand guard outside every residential compound. No one will be allowed to enter or exit the premises.
Fact: The armed forces will not take over Shanghai communities. The soldiers currently assisting with the city's anti-pandemic efforts are military medics involved in the mass testing of the population and treatment of COVID-19 patients.
