BEIJING, May 11 (Reuters) - Wuhan reported its first cluster of coronavirus infections since a lockdown on the city, the epicentre of the outbreak in China, was lifted a month ago, stoking concerns of a wider resurgence. The five new confirmed cases, all from the same residential compound, come amid efforts to ease restrictions across China as businesses restart and individuals get back to work. "We must resolutely contain the risk of a rebound," the health authority in Wuhan, a city with a population of about 11 million, said in a statement on Monday. New confirmed cases reported in China since April have been low compared with the thousands every day in February, thanks to a [http://www.buzznet.com/?s=nationwide%20regime nationwide regime] of screening, testing and quarantine. And Beijing said on Friday that cinemas, museums and other venues would gradually be reopened, though restrictions including mandatory reservations and a limit on numbers of visitors would be in place. Meanwhile, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html tour du lịch quế lâm] some Shanghai night spots are open again and Walt Disney Co reopened its Shanghai Disneyland park to a reduced number of visitors. All of the latest cases in Wuhan were previously classified as asymptomatic, people who test positive for the virus and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html tour du lịch quế lâm] are capable of infecting others but do not show clinical signs. Hundreds of asymptomatic cases in Wuhan, which was released on April 8 from a months-long lockdown, are being monitored. On average, the city has conducted about 47,000 nucleic acid tests each day since the lockdown was lifted, Reuters calculations based on reports by Wuhan's health authority show. China does not include asymptomatic cases in its overall tally of confirmed cases, now at 82,918, until they exhibit signs of infection. Mainland China has reported 4,633 deaths. Wuhan plans to conduct nucleic acid testing over a period of 10 days, an internal document seen by Reuters showed and two sources familiar with the situation said, with every district told to submit a detailed testing plan by Tuesday. Older and densely populated residential compounds and those with a concentration of migrant populations should be the focus of the testing, the document also showed. New outbreaks in China in the past two months have mainly developed in residential compounds or hospitals, while the number of asymptomatic cases is not known, as these only appear on the radar when they show up positive during tests. Wuhan's health authority could not be immediately reached for comment outside of business hours. 'WAR TIME' MODE As Wuhan reported new cases, Mi Feng, spokesman for China's National Health Commission, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] said new infections over the past 14 days in seven provinces were being traced while cases involving clusters "were continuing to increase". The health authority called for stronger protocols at laboratories handling samples of coronavirus strains and human nucleic acid tests as well as in transporting them. "We need to investigate and determine the origin of the infections and transmission routes," Mi told a media briefing. China's northeastern province of Jilin, which on Saturday reported a cluster of infections in Shulan, reported three additional cases. Shulan has been marked a high-risk area, the only place in China now with that designation. "We're now in a 'war-time' mode," said Jin Hua, the mayor of Shulan, which until the weekend had reported no local cases for more than 70 days. Shulan has imposed a lockdown on its 600,000 residents since the weekend, with just one member of a household being allowed out each day to buy necessities. One of the three cases confirmed in Jilin province on May 10 was from Shulan. The other two were uncovered through contact tracing of people who were in contact with earlier Shulan cases. Nearby Liaoning and Heilongjiang provinces each reported one case, fuelling worries of a regional resurgence. A 70-year-old in Heilongjiang's capital Harbin had tested negative seven times before results showed as positive. Of the new cases, seven were in the northern region of Inner Mongolia and involved travellers from abroad. Across China, the number of new asymptomatic coronavirus cases fell to 12 on May 10, compared with 20 a day earlier.

China To Launch Mars Probe In Space Race With US

China's Tianwen-1 spacecraft is expected to launch for Mars aboard a Long March 5 rocket China aims to launch a rover to Mars on Thursday on a journey coinciding with a similar US mission as the powers take their rivalry into deep space. The two countries are taking advantage of a period when Earth and Mars are closest to send their probes, with China's mission due to lift off by Saturday and the US spacecraft on July 30. It will be a crowded field. The United Arab Emirates launched a probe on Monday that will orbit Mars once it reaches the Red Planet. But the race to watch is between the United States and China, which has worked furiously to try and match Washington's supremacy in space. The Chinese mission has been named Tianwen-1 ("Questions to Heaven") in a nod to a classical poem that has verses about the cosmos. It is expected to launch on a Long March 5 -- China's biggest space rocket -- from the southern island of Hainan on Thursday, depending on the weather. Tianwen-1 is expected to arrive in February 2021 after a seven-month, 55-million-kilometre (34-million-mile) voyage. The mission includes a Mars orbiter, a lander and a rover that will study the planet's soil. "As a first try for China, I don't expect it to do anything significant beyond what the US has already done," said Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. The United States has already sent four rovers to Mars since the late 1990s. The next one, Perseverance, is an SUV-sized vehicle that will look for signs of ancient microbial life, and gather rock and soil samples with the goal of bringing them back to Earth on another mission in 2031. The Chinese mission is similar to NASA's Viking missions in 1975-1976, in that it has both an orbiter and a lander, McDowell said. Tianwen-1 is "broadly comparable to Viking in its scope and ambition," he added. - Catching up - After watching the United States and the Soviet Union lead the way during the Cold War, China has poured billions of dollars into its military-led space programme. China heads to Mars "China joining (the Mars race) will change the situation dominated by the US for half a century," said Chen Lan, an independent analyst at GoTaikonauts.com, which specialises in China's space programme. China has made huge strides in the past decade, sending a human into space in 2003. The Asian powerhouse has laid the groundwork to assemble a space station by 2022 and gain a permanent foothold in Earth orbit. China has already sent two rovers to the Moon. With the second, China became the first country to make a successful soft landing on the far side. The Moon missions gave China experience in operating spacecraft beyond Earth orbit, but Mars is another story. The much greater distance means "a bigger light travel time, so you have to do things more slowly as the radio signal round trip time is large," said McDowell. It also means "you need a more sensitive ground station on Earth because the signals will be much fainter," he added, noting that there is a greater risk of failure. China has upgraded its monitoring stations in the far-western Xinjiang region and northeastern Heilongjiang province to meet the Mars mission requirements, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] state news agency Xinhua reported last week. The majority of the dozens of missions sent by the US, Russia, Europe, Japan and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html Tour Quế Lâm] India to Mars since 1960 ended in failure. Tianwen-1 is not China's first attempt to go to Mars. A previous mission with Russia in 2011 ended [http://www.ehow.com/search.html?s=prematurely prematurely] as the launch failed. Now, Beijing is trying on its own. "As long as (Tianwen) safely lands on the Martian surface and sends back the first image, the mission will... be a big success," Chen said.
