Beijing faces second wave of COVID 19
almost 4 years in couriermail
Beijing has once again closed its schools and shops as it tries to contain a severe second outbreak of coronavirus.
Residents were warned not to leave the city, with authorities imposing a partial travel ban to curb the spread.
The resurgence saw more than 100 new infections, three-quarters of which emerged from a local wholesale food market.
Testing was increased as Beijing opted against a city-wide shutdown and instead favoured neighbourhood lockdowns to lessen the economic impact.
