這次中國白紙革命的外媒報導紀錄串:
"Beijing has been relying largely on domestically developed vaccines with a lower efficacy than mRNA shots. Meanwhile, frequent lockdowns have kept businesses closed and pushed up youth unemployment, with China now facing its worst slowdown in decades.
Wary of the high stakes, China’s top leadership earlier this month unveiled plans to “optimize and adjust” the policy to rescue the economy. However, local officials across the country doubled down on restrictions when cases started to rise recently."
路透社的報導相對帶點距離:
"During the weekend, protesters in cities including Wuhan and Lanzhou overturned COVID testing facilities, while students gathered on campuses across China in actions that were sparked by anger over an apartment fire late last week in the far western city of Urumqi that killed 10 people."
有記者被毆打的BBC這次直白很多:
"For a political organisation with no greater priority than remaining in power, this is as big a challenge as they come.
The government appears to have drastically underestimated growing discontent towards the zero-Covid approach - a policy inextricably linked to Mr Xi, who recently pledged there would be no swerving from the policy."
向來左傾的紐約時報這篇動用四名記者並附有照片與各地抗議影片:
“Later we shouted, ‘No nucleic acid tests, we want freedom’ and ‘No to health codes,’” she said. “I felt like finally I could say what I’ve wanted to say.”

澳廣特別作了一段兩分鐘訪問:
"It was unclear why they were so far away, but some said fire engines were blocked by pandemic-control barriers or by cars stranded after their owners were put in quarantine."
CNN則是把烏魯木齊火警影片放開頭, 四通橋掛橫幅影片放結尾, 串聯起中國疫情下的反抗動靜:
"Meanwhile, hopes that Beijing might be signaling a slight softening of its zero-Covid approach – after minor relaxations in some quarantine requirements – are beginning to fade amid an uptick in cases as China heads into its fourth winter of the pandemic..
The government appears to have drastically underestimated growing discontent towards the zero-Covid approach - a policy inextricably linked to Mr Xi, who recently pledged there would be no swerving from the policy."

中共在這波事後秘密清算裡也是特別針對女性下手:
"根據報導,第一批因參加抗議活動而被警方逮捕的人是四名女性,先是會計事務所職員李元婧及自由撰稿人李思琪,然後英美文學碩士翟登蕊,幾天後北大出版社編輯曹芷馨也被帶走。這四人是朋友,她們在北京辦讀書會、看電影,討論女權主義和LGBTQ權益等社會問題。"
