BEIJING - China extended its lockdown in districts of western megacity >Chengdu and ordered more mass testing there from Sunday as it tries to >contain a Covid-19 outbreak.
Chengdu's central Jinjiang district will further intensify lockdowns and >extend control measures for at least three days starting from Sunday,
the authorities said in a statement. Other districts also announced a
third round of Covid-19 tests on Sunday.
People should return home immediately after being tested, the officials
said. Chengdu's lockdown, which started on Thursday, demonstrates
China's commitment to its Covid-zero approach despite the huge economic
loss it has triggered.
The nation's sixth-largest city is the biggest to be closed off since >Shanghai on June 1 ended two months of curbs on people's movement, the >effects of which are still being felt by businesses.
Demand in Shanghai for everything from dining out to movies and tourism
are still far below pre-lockdown levels, while some indicators show the
city is taking longer to recover than Hong Kong and Singapore where
rules have been eased.
Retail sales in the city dropped 4.3 per cent in June from a year
earlier and rose a meager 0.3 per cent in July, following an average 35
per cent slump in the preceding three months starting March, when the >outbreak began.
Nationwide, China reported 1,673 local Covid-19 cases for Saturday,
including 1,359 that are asymptomatic.
