Beijing, June 25 (RHC)-- Authorities have raced to contain a second outbreak linked to the largest wholesale food market in Beijing after the first case was announced on June 11th, leading to a partial lockdown of the city.
"The Beijing epidemic directly linked to Xinfadi (market) is basically under control, but at the same time we have discovered household and workplace cluster infections and cases of community transmission," said Beijing municipal government spokesman Xu Hejian at a briefing.
"The prevention and control situation remains complicated, we cannot lower our guard in the slightest."
