After an anal examination, a video showing a wriggling walk was spreading through Chinese social network services (SNS) such as Weibo (Chinese version of Twitter) and controversial, while the Chinese authorities clarified that “the video was manipulated.” .
Recently, Weibo posted a video of children who had an anus examination for a novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, walking with their buttocks removed as if they were uncomfortable.
In China, anal examinations are being conducted for immigrants or those in close contact with the confirmed patients because anal examinations are more effective than oral examinations.
It is not a method of collecting a sample by inserting a cotton swab into the mouth or nose, but a method of collecting a sample by sticking a cotton swab into the anus.
When the uncomfortable image of the anal examination was spread through video, Chinese netizens showed negative reactions such as “Anal examination is scarier than a virus” and “The most humiliating examination”.
As complaints about anal examinations spread rapidly, authorities in Shijiazhuang City of China warned on the 31st that “the images have been fabricated, and spreading false information on the Internet can be legally punished.”
They explained that as a result of confirming whether the authorities had conducted an anal examination with the city’s health department and hospital medical staff, the doctor said that the anal examination was only performed through the nose and throat.
In addition, the state-run Global Times told the story of a netizen that he had an anal examination, but there was no discomfort, and emphasized that “Anal examination is performed only for diarrhea patients hospitalized for Corona 19, and does not cause any inconvenience.”
