Many housing compounds are requiring people to be tested. In answer to those asking about home testing, that’s not available/recognised here. You have to go to an official testing place but there are lots of them in #Beijing and they’re pretty efficient. #China
There was also a shopping centre requiring everyone to be tested in Shuangjing area yesterday. Sometimes these compounds and shopping centres have mass testing because an infected person, or a close contact of theirs, visited. #Beijing #China
This #Beijing outbreak, so far has 43 official symptomatic cases in total. Officials here said today the #Omicron cluster had been contained but that #Delta continues to spread. #Fengtai District is having mass testing; has reduced public transport & banned public gatherings.
Some of the compulsory testing could be because people infected (or close contacts of theirs) have visited an area, a shopping district or a nearby compound at some point. #Beijing #China
I was told by a pharmacist that all oral medication, including ordinary anti-histamines, now require a doctor’s prescription in #Beijing. #China
In #Beijing, apart from Shuangjing and Jianguomen areas, entire housing compounds are being tested near Chaoyang Park. Also, everyone in the entire district of Fengtai is being tested. #China
