Recently, the delta mutant virus is spreading everywhere in China. In Wuhan, China, which was designated as the place where Corona 19 first started, another confirmed case came out after a year and three months, and the city of Wuhan began testing all residents.



Correspondent Song Wook in Beijing reported the news.



<Reporter> A



barricade was erected in front of a residential complex in Wuhan City, Hubei Province,



[Wuhan City Resident: I am not allowed to leave the complex. It seems that a confirmed person came from the construction site opposite.] There



were long lines all over the place with people trying to get a PCR test.



This is because seven construction site workers were infected with Corona 19, but it is the first time since mid-May last year that an infection occurred in Wuhan.



The city of Wuhan, which suffered a 76-day city lockdown after the first cluster outbreak of COVID-19, hastily started PCR testing on all 11 million residents.



[Liao/Wuhan Deputy Secretary General: We plan to quickly start PCR testing on all citizens to thoroughly test confirmed and asymptomatic infected people.]



One infected person in Wuhan City was recently

diagnosed with a

tourist who visited Zhangjiajie, Hunan Province, where the corona virus is spreading. It turned out that they were in the same train station.



After a cluster infection was confirmed at Nanjing Airport in Jiangsu Province on the 20th, corona confirmed in China have been occurring all over the country, including Zhangjiajie, Beijing and Hainan.



In the past two weeks, more than 500 infections have been reported in 20 cities, most of which have been confirmed to be highly contagious delta mutations.



In areas where confirmed cases have occurred, measures equivalent to lockdown are being implemented, such as prohibition of going out and suspension of vehicle operation.



China has prevented Corona with strong lockdown and large-scale testing, but it is facing the biggest crisis since the Wuhan outbreak last year due to the spread of the delta mutation that goes beyond quarantine.
