BEIJING: China announced Wednesday that key companies will be allowed to resume work in coronavirus-hit Wuhan, in another sign authorities are confident the quarantined city is winning its battle against the epidemic.
The number of daily new cases has fallen steadily in Wuhan in recent weeks, while all other cities in Hubei have reported zero fresh infections for several days in a row — prompting Xi to declare that the spread of the virus has been “basically curbed” in the province. Wuhan firms that are key to “global industrial chains” may do so as well, after getting approval, the government added.Similar rules apply to areas outside Wuhan that are considered high-risk, where companies involved in epidemic prevention, public utilities and providing necessities are among those that may resume work.
Passenger flights, trains, cars, ships and city buses in middle-and low-risk areas — moving within the province and excluding Wuhan — will “gradually resume operations” as well, although no timeframe was given.Health codes
