Residents of a Chinese city have been amazed to see what appeared to be three suns hanging in the sky at the same time. The optical illusion lasted three hours this morning in Mohe, the country's northernmost city near the Russian border.

Coronavirus Behaving Differently In China apos;s Northeast Clusters ...

BEIJING, May 20 (Reuters) - The novel coronavirus is behaving differently in patients in northeast China who have contracted it recently compared with early cases, indicating it is changing as it spreads, a prominent doctor said. China, which has largely brought the virus under control, has found new clusters of infections in the northeastern border provinces of Jilin and Heilongjiang in recent weeks, raising concern about a second wave. Qiu Haibo, an expert in critical care medicine who is part of a National Health Commission expert group, said the incubation period of the virus in patients in the northeast was longer than that of patients in Wuhan, the central city, where the [https://www.sportsblog.com/search?search=virus%20emerged virus emerged] late last year. "This causes a problem, as they don't have any symptoms. So when they gather with their families they don't care about this issue and we see family cluster infections," Qiu told state broadcaster CCTV in a programme broadcast late on Tuesday. Patients in the northeastern clusters were also carrying the virus for longer than earlier cases in Wuhan, and they were taking longer to recover, as defined by a negative nucleic acid test, he said. Patients in the northeast also rarely exhibited fever and tended to suffer damage to the lungs rather than across multiple organs, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] he said. He said the virus found in the northeastern clusters was probably imported from abroad, which could account for the differences. He did not say where he though they might have come from but both Jilin and Heilongjiang border Russia. China reported five new coronavirus cases on Wednesday, down from six a day earlier. Four of the new cases were local transmissions and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html Tour Quế Lâm] one was imported by a traveller coming from abroad, the commission said in a statement, compared with three imported cases reported the previous day. China's total number of coronavirus infections stands at 82,965, while the death toll 4,634. (Reporting by Se Young Lee and Jing Wang; Additional Reporting by Brenda Goh; Editing by Kim Coghill)

Slowly But Steady China Strives To Make Widespread Virus Testing...

By Brenda Goh and Min Zhang SHANGHAI/BEIJING, May 13 (Reuters) - Beijing resident Wang Yukun was happy to comply in April when the construction firm he works for told him he'd need to take a test for the novel coronavirus before he could come back to work, even though he was at low risk of having the disease. "My company arranged it and covered the test fee. The process was less time-consuming than I imagined," he said, recalling how he got his negative result the next day. "I think everyone should be tested as a matter of personal health." While coronavirus tests can be difficult to obtain in many countries, China is rapidly expanding their availability and affordability, enabling the masses - not just frontline workers, people from hard-hit areas or the sick - to get tested. China is able to produce 5 million test kits a day, the [http://www.business-opportunities.biz/search/?q=country%27s%20industry country's industry] ministry said last month. While China has not tallied how many daily tests are being carried out nationally, its capacity is far greater than other countries including the United States, which has conducted around 300,000 tests daily on average in recent days, according to the non-profit COVID Tracking Project. Even South Korea and Germany, hailed for tested widely, were able to conduct roughly 20,000 and 120,000 tests a day, respectively, at their peak. Major Chinese cities and provinces have published lists of hundreds of hospitals and clinics now authorised to perform tests and are expanding laboratory capabilities to allow people to obtain their nucleic acid test results in a few hours. Some local governments have added the tests to basic medical insurance schemes, helping to cover costs which range from 60-270 yuan ($8.50-$38). The easy access has helped firms, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] schools and entertainment providers to reopen after widespread testing. Hosts of popular Chinese [http://en.search.wordpress.com/?q=singing singing] competition, Singer 2020, invited 251 audience members to record a live show last month after testing them. It is also laying the groundwork for mass testing efforts, should the need arise. Wuhan, the epicentre of China's coronavirus outbreak, plans to conduct nucleic acid testing across the city of 11 million after a cluster of new infections emerged, sources said. TESTING UNEVEN, VOLUNTARY China began pushing for widespread testing in April as concerns about the potential asymptomatic patients spreading the virus rose. Since April 13, each Chinese province has been required to provide daily reports on their virus testing efforts, and a stringent nationwide regime of screening, testing and quarantine has seen case numbers fall sharply since peaking in mid-February. Even so, China has refrained from making testing mandatory for all people. Daily, country-wide testing data is not published, and the ramp up of testing capability has been uneven. Hubei, Guangdong, Zhejiang and Heilongjiang, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-huu-nghi-quan-nam-ninh-que-lam-4-ngay.html tour du lịch quế lâm] which have a combined population of over 267 million, are together able to conduct at least 321,000 tests a day, according to statements they made in April and May. Beijing has 67 labs capable of processing 48,000 tests a day. But other less well-off provinces including Yunnan and Guangxi are playing catch-up, opening new labs in recent weeks. And with testing compulsory only for certain categories of people, decisions are mainly left to companies or individuals. A source from a Hunan-based state-owned steel mill that employs around 80 people said they were initially asked to take a test only if they lived near a confirmed case. However, colleagues who travel outside the province are now asked to take a test before they return to the office. Still, everyone who wants to get tested is being encouraged to do so. Chinese e-commerce giants Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and JD.com allow people to book appointments via their widely used platforms, and companies often waive the fees for workers. One taxi company based in Guangzhou sent all 14,000 of its drivers for tests at the request of the government. "This given to the drivers for free," said Kuang Yali, head of Guangzhou Baiyun Car Rental Group's publicity department. "This is to give the drivers assurance, and to also put passengers at ease."
