China is reporting its highest number of new coronavirus cases in more than five weeks, saying most of them originated abroad.
Officials said Monday that mainland China had 169 new confirmed cases of infection, with 61 of them described as “asymptomatic” COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus. The government said 98 of the cases were “imported” by people arriving from abroad. The total figure represents the highest number of new cases since March 6.
The increase has sparked concern about the second wave of infections in China, which was the original epicentre of the pandemic.
