Beijing sets entry rules as cases rise

BEIJING People travelling to Beijing will be subject to tighter Covid-19 control measures starting from Wednesday, the municipal government said yesterday.

All those entering Beijing must show negative results of nucleic acid tests taken within 48 hours before arrival and a green health code. Those from counties (cities, districts or banners) with new infections within 14 days are under tight restrictions when seeking entry to the Chinese capital, the government said at a press briefing.

The holding of national conferences, training, and other activities in Beijing will also be strictly controlled.

Closed-loop management will be implemented during these activities, and none of the participants will be allowed to go out.

The measures will be dynamically adjusted according to changes in the epidemic situation.

The Chinese mainland reported 57 new locally transmitted Covid-19 cases on Friday, the National Health Commission (NHC) said in its daily report yesterday.
