Inter-city public transport services were also suspended, and surrounding highway exits closed.<\/p>\n<p>Fresh cases reported Saturday in two more regions &#8212; Fujian province and the sprawling megacity of Chongqing &#8212; included one patient who visited the tourist city of Xi&#8217;an, Shaanxi province, and an international cargo crew member who recently travelled from abroad, authorities said.<\/p>\n<p>Officials in one Chongqing district ordered emergency mass testing late Friday for people who had visited venues linked to confirmed cases.<\/p>\n<p>After one asymptomatic case was discovered in Zhengzhou &#8212; the epicentre of recent deadly floods in central Henan province &#8212; city officials on Saturday ordered mass testing of all 10 million residents. The head of the city health commission was also sacked.<\/p>\n<p>The tourist city of Zhangjiajie in Hunan province, where the landscape inspired the &#8220;Avatar&#8221; blockbuster, locked down all 1.5 million residents and shut all tourist attractions Friday, according to an official notice.<\/p>\n<p>Health officials said the virus was likely brought there via the Nanjing cluster, according to preliminary investigations.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Tourists urged not to travel &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Officials are now scrambling to track people nationwide who recently travelled from Nanjing or Zhangjiajie, and have urged tourists not to travel to areas where cases have been found.<\/p>\n<p>After reports that some people sickened in the latest cluster were vaccinated, health officials said this was &#8220;normal&#8221; and stressed the importance of vaccination alongside strict measures.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Covid vaccine&#8217;s protection against the Delta variant may have somewhat declined, but the current vaccine still has a good preventative and protective effect against the Delta variant,&#8221; said Feng Zijian, virologist at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.<\/p>\n<p>More than 1.6 billion vaccine doses have so far been administered nationwide as of Friday, the NHC said. It does not provide figures on how many people have been fully vaccinated.<\/p>\n<p>Health officials have said they are aiming for 80 percent of the population to be fully vaccinated by year-end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beijing (AFP), Jul 31 &#8211; China raced Saturday to contain its worst coronavirus outbreak in months, as health officials blamed the highly infectious Delta variant for a surge in infections spanning 14 provinces.
