[국제]China continues to spread despite strong control

[앵커]

To prevent the spread of Corona 19, China has blocked 23 million people in four cities from leaving the city.

Twenty thousand rural residents are mobilizing the opposite way of leaving their villages, but they are not catching the spread.

Correspondent Kang Seong-woong reports from Beijing.

China has been blocking the city of Shijiazhuang, the epicenter of this re-proliferation, for more than a week.

It is a strategy to suppress the spread of Corona 19 from the outside in a short period of time while preventing the spread of Corona 19 with strong controls.

There are four cities blocked in this way, including three in Hebei Province, with a population of more than 23 million.

It is more than twice as many as the population of Wuhan, which was blocked last year, about 10 million people.

Blocked cities are repeatedly performing nucleic acid tests for all residents to find and treat infected people.

Large cities with an explosive increase in inspection volume are responding by installing simple inspection stations one after another.

Contrary to the blockade, 12 rural areas in Shijiazhuang City require the village to be emptied entirely.

They decided that quarantining residents in nearby hotels or dormitories would be better for controlling the epidemic.

As many as 20,000 people went to the quarantine facility at once, and some people stayed the night on the bus.

However, the spread continues in China, with the number of confirmed cases in China surpassing one hundred a day in five months.

As the blockade alone did not appear to be effective in a short period of time, China is mobilizing the opposite method of emptiing the entire region.

This shows that quarantine is not easier than before.
