China steps up anti-COVID measures in megacities as infections increase

Shanghai and other big Chinese cities, including Shenzhen and Xian, have ramped up testing for COVID-19 as infections ticked up after a week-long holiday, with some local authorities hastily closing schools, entertainment venues and tourist spots, SİA reports citing Reuters.

Infections have risen this week to the highest since August, with the uptick coming after increased domestic travel during the National Day "Golden Week" earlier this month.

Authorities reported 2,089 new local infections for Oct. 10, the highest since Aug. 20.
