Beijing has discovered 42 symptomatic new cases of the coronavirus since Thursday, leading authorities to resurrect lockdown measures and elevating fears of a second wave of infections.

Paramilitary police officers wear face masks and goggles as they stand guard at an entrance to the closed Xinfadi market in Beijing on Saturday.Paramilitary police officers wear face masks and goggles as they stand guard at an entrance to the closed Xinfadi market in Beijing on Saturday.

Authorities said they tested 5,803 people working at the market on Saturday alone — all were negative for the coronavirus — as well as 2,383 samples taken from surfaces within the market. Those who have been in contact with the market or people who have contacted the market since May 30 have been asked by municipal authorities to voluntarily submit themselves to a nucleic acid exam.

Lockdown measures, which had been rapidly easing up before the cluster of cases was discovered in Beijing, are now partially returning.

Watchdogsniffer 'On top of the 42 cases, authorities have discovered at least 48 asymptomatic cases of the coronavirus linked to the market, meaning the people carrying the virus have yet to show symptoms.' US is not prepared for any re-openings with this type of thorough follow-up. Best of luck

Just send them to Texas. We won't even notice the increase. AND they can go out for BBQ!
