2 asymptomatic community cases found

Shanghai reported two asymptomatic community COVID-19 cases and added two medium-risk areas yesterday after no community cases for five straight days.

The patients are a 29-year-old online-hailing cab driver living in suburban Fengxian District and a 57-year-old cleaner who lives in Jing’an District. Both were detected during regular polymerase chain reaction tests.

According to epidemiological investigation, they had been to markets, shopping malls, a car charging station, a bank and a funeral parlor in Fengxian, Jing’an and Hongkou districts and Pudong in the last two weeks.

Two new medium-risk areas were designated at the village and community that the new cases live, while more than 130 close contacts have been quarantined and are under PCR screening.

Among the 281 environmental samples, eight pieces collected from the online-hailing car tested positive.

The 13 medium-risk areas in Shanghai are in Xuhui, Baoshan, Songjiang, Yangpu, Hongkou, Putuo, Jing’an, Minhang and Fengxian districts.
