Though there was no announcement that cameras will be mounted and fixed outside of every door to those people who are under quarantine, but it does already happening in every cities across China, according to some people who recounted their experienced to CNN.

Some said that cameras also placed inside their homes. A public servant William Zhou in eastern Jiangsu province, returned to the city of Changzhou in late February. He said two community worker and a police officer came to his apartment to installed or set up a camera from a cabinet wall inside his apartment and it pointed to his front door.

Zhou didn't like the idea and asked what the camera would capture or record and the community worker showed him the footage on his smartphone. He saw "him standing in his living room and the camera captured him clearly in it's frame," Zhou said.

My own view:

China's step in controlling the spread of Corona virus is a big wave for everyone for you can't say no if cameras installed in everyone's houses for safety procedure. One must obey and abide the law for everybody's safety, for good reason or any other reason's, government will imposed for public safety and to monitor those under quarantine. How long will it takes and when it will be removed no body knows.

Maybe the virus is ahead of us, and all we can do is to take some precautionary measure to avoid getting it. As I have heard, it will take a long journey for us to be back to normal again even if lock down will be lift in every country we still need to practice the social distancing from everybody.

Keep safe everyone!
