BEIJING - Officials cancelled scores of domestic flights in and out of Beijing on Wednesday as they ramped up attempts to contain a coronavirus outbreak in the Chinese capital over the past week that has sparked fears of renewed wider contagion.
Authorities on Tuesday raised Beijing to a level two alert, the second-highest level in a four-tier Covid-19 emergency response level system. That reversed a one step downgrade from level two to level three a mere 10 days earlier. However, movement of people in and out of the city was strictly controlled and subject to Covid-19 tests, while residents in high-risk areas were quarantined in their neighbourhoods and also required to undergo tests.The outbreak has been traced to the massive Xinfadi wholesale food centre in the southwest of Beijing where thousands of tonnes of vegetables, fruit and meat are traded each day.
