China COVID-19 outbreak: 26 million people under lockdown in Shanghai

"Yahoo Finance" Channel on Youtube is pretty interesting with explanations about China, COVID-19 and Shanghai City lockdown situation. Yahoo Finance's Anjalee Khemlani explains the latest news on the coronavirus and the extent of Shanghai's COVID lockdown.

You could also check out NBC News on Youtube that shows that China is reimposing strict lockdown rules in Shanghai as the city records some of the highest numbers of new daily Covid-19 cases since the pandemic began. NBC News’ Janis Mackey Frayer breaks down whether this large lockdown differs from others imposed in China during the pandemic and how people in the city are responding.

Shanghai City ( Chinese: 上海 ) is really one of the 4 direct-administered municipalities of the People's Republic of China. The large city is really located on the southern estuary of the Yangtze River, with the Huangpu River flowing through it. With a big population of 24.87 million as of 2020, Shanghai is the most populous urban area in China and the most populous city proper in the world. It is the only city in East Asia with a GDP greater than its corresponding capital. As of 2018, the Greater Shanghai metropolitan area, which includes Suzhou, Wuxi, Nantong, Ningbo, Jiaxing, Zhoushan, and Huzhou, was estimated to produce a gross metropolitan product (nominal) of nearly 9.1 trillion RMB ($1.33 trillion). Shanghai certainly has been one of the world's major centers for finance, important business and economics, research, education, science and technology, manufacturing, tourism, culture, dining, art, fashion, sports, and transportation, and the Port of Shanghai is the world's busiest important container port. In 2019, the Shanghai Pudong International Airport was one of the world's 10 busiest airports by passenger traffic, and 1 of the 2 international airports serving the Shanghai metropolitan area, the other one being called the so-called Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport.

Hong Kong really wants to test entire population for Covid-19. Shanghai struggles with COVID lockdown.

Hong Kong authorities on Saturday indeed asked the entire population of more than 7.4 million people to voluntarily test at home for COVID-19 for 3 days in a row starting next week.

Hong Kong City reported another 5,820 cases Friday as the latest surge begins to decrease.

In Shanghai City, authorities are struggling to meet requirements for a city lockdown on many of the city’s 26 million residents. This is the massive largest such undertaking by China since the virus was detected in the central Chinese city of Wuhan in late 2019.

Youtube 上的“雅虎財經”頻道對中國、COVID-19 和上海市封鎖情況的解釋非常有趣。雅虎財經的 Anjalee Khemlani 解釋了有關冠狀病毒的最新消息以及上海 COVID 封鎖的程度。

您還可以在 Youtube 上查看 NBC 新聞，該新聞顯示中國正在上海重新實施嚴格的封鎖規定，因為該市記錄了自大流行開始以來每日新增的 Covid-19 病例數最高的記錄。 NBC 新聞的 Janis Mackey Frayer 詳細分析了這種大規模封鎖是否與大流行期間在中國實施的其他封鎖不同，以及該市人們的反應如何。

上海市（中文：上海）實際上是中華人民共和國的4個直轄市之一。這座大城市確實位於長江南口，黃浦江穿城而過。截至2020年，上海擁有2487萬人口，是中國人口最多的城市，也是世界上人口最多的城市。它是東亞唯一一個GDP大於其對應首都的城市。截至 2018 年，包括蘇州、無錫、南通、寧波、嘉興、舟山和湖州在內的大上海都市圈預計產生近 9.1 萬億元人民幣（1.33 萬億美元）的都市生產總值（名義）。上海無疑是世界主要的金融中心、重要的商業和經濟中心、研究、教育、科技、製造、旅遊、文化、餐飲、藝術、時尚、體育和交通中心之一，上海港是世界上最繁忙的重要集裝箱港口。 2019 年，上海浦東國際機場是全球客運量最繁忙的 10 個機場之一，也是服務於上海大都市區的 2 個國際機場中的 1 個，另一個被稱為所謂的上海虹橋國際機場。

香港真的很想測試整個人群的 Covid-19。上海正在努力應對新冠疫情的封鎖。

香港當局週六確實要求超過 740 萬人從下週開始連續 3 天自願在家進行 COVID-19 檢測。

隨著最近的激增開始減少，香港市週五又報告了 5,820 例病例。

在上海市，當局正在努力滿足對該市 2600 萬居民中的許多人實施封城的要求。這是自 2019 年底在中國中部城市武漢發現該病毒以來，中國最大的此類行動。
