BEIJING - A small Chinese city on the border with Russia is mounting an increasingly urgent defence against a surge of new coronavirus cases even as crowds return to restaurants and shops in much of the rest of the country.
On Thursday , Suifenhe reported that it had a total of 123 imported coronavirus cases, nearly 97 per cent of cases in Heilongjiang. "We're so scared. Measures here are so much stricter now compared to the earlier period," said Liang Yuxin, a 21-year-old student in Suifenhe told Reuters via social media messaging.
"We will admit and treat every single person who requires admission and treatment," Yu Kaihong, the leader of a provincial medical team sent to assist Suifenhe, told a news conference on Thursday.Chinese authorities closed the border on Tuesday although cargo was allowed in as long as drivers had their health checked.
