Quarantine in China is an extreme experience. If you travel to China, you spend 14-21 days in a hotel room. The fact that you do not leave the room is monitored by cameras in the hallway, which is always lit. The sinologist Martin Woesler has recorded how you 'survive' this quarantine and what you have to consider in advance through checklists, descriptions and photos. The book is the captivating experience report of a China trip, which the author undertook in early 2022.

It shows the final consequence of the competition between two social systems: Conviction or external control, personal responsibility or incapacitation, freedom or coercion. Quarantine in China is effective: it is a core component of a hermetically sealed country whose government pursues a no-COVID policy. Here we describe the cost of an autocratic system's insistence on keeping the pandemic outside its Great Wall.
