Particular neighborhoods or cities with particularly large (by Chinese standards, meaning tiny by outside standards) outbreaks are in lockdown. The vast majority of China is not under lockdown. This is something which is very poorly understood outside China, partly because of sensationalist coverage in Western media. It's also partly because most people in the West don't speak Chinese and are generally unfamiliar with the country, and thus have very weak nonsense detection filters when it comes to news about China. That's why complete nonsense like the "social credit score" myth continues to circulate widely in the Western discourse about China.
