China's most populous city Shanghai tightens the first phase of a two-stage Covid-19 lockdown as new daily cases exceed 4,400
There were growing signs of frustration on China's social media and dozens of residents flocked to the Weibo platform to seek help for relatives, with some struggling to access medical services. Authorities asked some residents to stay indoors unless they are getting tested as the number of new daily cases exceeded 4,400.
Residents east of the Huangpu were locked down in their housing compounds on Monday but were mostly allowed to roam within them. Wu Qianyu, an official with the municipal health commission, told a briefing that a "clear request" had been made to residents not to leave their apartments, even to take pets for a walk or throw out trash, during "a key stage in nucleic acid testing".
Though China is sticking to its plan for crushing the outbreak, experts overseas remain sceptical about the efficacy of lockdowns in the face of a highly infectious new variant. General Motors's joint venture has managed to maintain production by asking workers to sleep on factory floors, people familiar with the matter said.
The city government rolled out new measures to try to support Covid-affected businesses, including rent exemptions and tax rebates.
