    I got my results via one of the centralized apps.

    As far as I know, if you test positive right now, you'll be taken to a big quarantine center where you'll stay until you can test negative twice. Like AlyxMS said, the policies are all over the place - I also heard talk about letting asymptomatic cases being allowed to quarantine at home but since then all the talk has been about the big centralized quarantine halls.

    If you're interested, there was a foreign journalist called Emma Leaning I think who tested positive and was tweeting about her experience in centralized quarantine.

    Depends, and honestly hard to get a really broad picture of what everyone's feeling.

    Everyone in urban China lives in a 'community' organized by local government. Some are good at their jobs and some are bad. In communities like mine where testing has been very well organized and we've been provided with good food rations, everyone seems pretty mellow, but I've heard of some discontent in communities where food provisions have been bad or non-existent (by discontent, I mean old people complaining at the management in the community, haven't seen or heard of any real protests that have been suggesting in the media).

    I think everyone's a little irritated at the Shanghai government as a whole for preparing poorly and responding slowly, but Beijing's taking over the response now so hopefully it'll be resolved quickly.
