BEIJING - A district of Beijing was on a “wartime” footing and the capital banned tourism on Saturday after a cluster of novel coronavirus infections centred around a major wholesale market sparked fears of a new wave of COVID-19.
The virus was first reported at a seafood market in Wuhan, the capital of central China’s Hubei province, in December. A city spokesman told the briefing that all six COVID-19 patients confirmed in Beijing on Friday had visited the Xinfadi market. The capital will suspend sports events and inter-provincial tourism effective immediately, he said.
Authorities closed the Xinfadi market at 3 a.m. on Saturday , after two men working at a meat research centre who had recently visited the market were reported on Friday to have been infected. It was not immediately clear how the men had been infected. Reflecting concerns over the risk of further spread of the virus, major supermarkets in Beijing removed salmon from their shelves overnight after the virus causing COVID-19 was discovered on chopping boards used for imported salmon at the market, the state-owned Beijing Youth Daily reported.

I would plan return to Beijing on June 20, but now I have to postpone it. shit
Hang on....a report on this same timeline from 2 hours ago you reported that only 19 cases reported. Which is it?
DrSenait This was inevitable. I've been surprised at how people didn't see this coming. We know how respiratory viruses behave, and this one is especially infectious. For lockdown strategy to work it has to be complete & permanent -- with or without a 'vaccine.' Clearly not sustainable.
I wonder what other surprises the Chinese have for the world next year? Maybe a different sars2,covid20 amongst others.
The world should keep these countries on lockdown ..
U dint mention the 'fact' tt it's due imported cases. Anyways we now expect WashingtonTimes NewYorkTimes to do the honours for their masters. China CCP CCPVirus XiJinpingVIrus COVID19
I am sure they will have it under control..... They are not Americans....
Was it in Xinhua news? Probably not
Beijing removed salmon from their shelves overnight after the virus causing COVID-19 was discovered on chopping boards used for imported salmon at the market. 🤔
Really, what’s is going on? Seems to be a huge disconnect but that seems to be a major part of our human condition.
This time the truth might emerge. There is virus detected in sea food market in south Korea the same day. Maybe that’s why trump quit WHO to avoid investigation.
Now they are catching it as eyeshed exercise.

Wait, you got more info about China than WHO DrTedros
