China’s National Health Commission says the country should unwaveringly stick to a policy of stamping out any COVID-19 outbreaks.
China ‘striving to control new outbreaks’
China is striving to control the sudden outbreak of COVID-19 infections in the shortest possible time, the health commission says in its first comments since the 20th Communist Party Congress as cases rise across major cities.
China should unwaveringly stick to its dynamic zero-COVID-19 policy, the National Health Commission said.
China, which has repeatedly said it would not waver from its policy on COVID-19 even as mass lockdowns and curbs hurt the economy, recorded almost 3000 cases on Tuesday.
Major economic hubs like Zhengzhou and Guangzhou are experiencing outbreaks and several other cities have enforced strict curbs and mass testing affecting millions.
