SHANGHAI (Reuters) – Shanghai will require all of its 16 districts to organise mass COVID testing for residents every weekend until the end of July, a city official said on Wednesday.
Zhao Dandan said that said that all districts will organise “community screenings” each weekend.
Should a district find any community transmission during the week, it will be required to conduct a full screening during which all residents will be subjected to “closed management” movement restrictions until testing is over, he added.
