SHENZHEN, China (Reuters) – China will not waver in preventing a rebound of COVID-19 and in its ‘dynamic-clearing’ of cases as soon as they emerge, a spokesperson for the China National Health Commission said in a press conference on Saturday.
China’s current strategy is still able to control COVID-19 despite the high transmissibility of COVID variants and asymptomatic carriers, a health official added.
China has a zero COVID policy, which includes lockdowns, quarantining and rigorous testing, aimed at stopping the spread of COVID.
