77-year-old elderly man Shen Ruigen passed away after being denied dialysis by the hospital for testing positive for COVID-19, resulting in a 55-hour delay

A Weibo user "redsyp" posted a message stating that their 77-year-old father, Shen Ruigen, who had diabetes and kidney failure, was undergoing dialysis treatment and required daily medication for high blood pressure, diabetes, insulin, kidney disease, and stroke. Due to improper pandemic control management in Pudong New District, the father went from being a relatively independent elderly person to passing away within 55 hours.
