China is scrambling to contain its most widespread Covid-19 outbreak since the first wave of infections that began in Wuhan in 2019.
Though subsequent flare-ups have seen higher total case numbers, this outbreak has spread the furthest, with 19 of China's 31 provinces -- more than half the country -- reporting cases since the outbreak began in mid-October, according to the National Health Commission .On Wednesday, the NHC reported 93 new symptomatic cases -- the highest daily count in three months. About 500 cases have been reported nationwide since the outbreak began, according to state-run tabloid the Global Times.
Residents and authorities had only a few weeks to catch their breath before another outbreak emerged in September in Fujian province. This time, images of the government's stringent containment measures -- including separating children as young as four from their parents during quarantine -- drew international concern and criticism.By September 29, health officials declared that the Fujian outbreak had been brought under control. Less than three weeks later, the current outbreak emerged.
