Firms in the Chinese capital are having to navigate what to do about sick employees, given a lack of official rules.
The 36-year-old – along with two out of her four employees and a handful of business contacts – has been caught up in the recent wave of reinfection sweeping through Beijing.
While this has not been severe enough to disrupt economic performance, experts believe that the current wave will peak in the coming weeks. The Beijing Centre for Disease Prevention and Control said Sars-CoV-2, which causes Covid-19, has been the top reported virus in the city for five weeks in a row, but did not offer a breakdown of the number of Covid-19 cases.
The government’s sudden dismantling of the policy led to the virus ripping through the country, with hospitals and crematoriums overwhelmed.Increased travel and the lifting of indoor mask mandates, coupled with the highly infectious XBB variant, have meant that an increasing number of people are falling sick.
