Authorities have begun locking down some western areas of Shanghai two days ahead of schedule.
Home to 26 million people, China’s financial hub is in the third day of a lockdown officials are imposing by dividing the city roughly along the Huangpu River, splitting the historic centre west of the river from the eastern financial and industrial district of Pudong to allow for staggered mass tests.
Several residents living in western districts on Tuesday received notice from their housing committees that they would be stopped from leaving their compounds for the next seven days. They also said they planned to disinfect places such as office buildings, construction sites, wet markets and schools in a month-long campaign.China’s “dynamic clearance” approach means it aims to clear all cases, and all people who test positive are sent to central quarantine centres or hospitals. Close contacts and neighbours must quarantine at home.
