International News: 65 million people in COVID-19 lockdown in China

By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: China has imposed stricter COVID-19 restrictions on 65 million citizens due to a surge in cases, Yahoo reports.

In addition, authorities are discouraging domestic travel since 33 cities are under full or partial lockdown due to COVID-19.

Chinese authorities say that outbreaks have been reported in 103 cities, the highest since the early days of the pandemic in early 2020.

China has adhered to a “Zero-COVID” policy requiring lockdowns, quarantines, and the confining of people suspected of being in close contact with any confirmed case.

The National Health Commission in China reported that today, there were 1,552 new cases in the latest 24-hour period across a nation of 1.4 billion people.

The new measures have taken a toll on the economy, travel, and society but the government says that it is necessary to prevent a wider spread.
