After the new outbreak of coronavirus in Beijing, the number of infected people has increased further. As the state health commission announced today, 21 further infections were detected in the capital. A total of 27 infected people were reported across the country. Since the new outbreak on a wholesale market in the Chinese capital was announced on Thursday, the number of infected people has grown to over 299.
In response to the new outbreak that started at the city’s Xinfadi wholesale market last week, the authorities announced the second-highest security level on Tuesday, partially sealing off Beijing. Flights from and to the capital have been drastically reduced. Bus traffic to other provinces has also ceased. People should no longer leave the city. If travel is necessary, a negative coronavirus test must be available.
