Shanghai residents scream in frustration from their balconies

Videos are doing the rounds on social media, purportedly showing the people of Shanghai complaining of lack of food and medical care. Barred from leaving their houses, they took to their balconies to scream, sing and lend voice to their anger, fears and suffering.
