Nearly one million people have been placed in lockdown in a suburb of Wuhan, the central city in China where the coronavirus was first recorded.
The BBC reported, specifying that residents of the Jiangxia district were ordered to stay inside their homes for three days after four asymptomatic cases of Covid were detected, this is the first time that the Chinese metropolis.
which has 12 million inhabitants, has applied these provisions since 2020, reported the financial news agency Bloomberg.
China maintains its "zero Covid" policy, using lockdowns, movement restrictions and large-scale testing, although the more contagious variants of the disease appear to be able to "bypass" all of these measures in place.
