There is a lot of fanfare today in ทดลองเล่นslotxo the Chinese city of Ruili, where the authorities have lifted stay-at-home orders for people in low-risk areas.

Ruili, in southwestern Yunnan province, has been the site of China’s one domestic Covid-19 outbreak over the last month. There have been more than 100 confirmed cases in the China-Myanmar border city since 30 March, affecting both Chinese and Burmese nationals.

The city implemented strict lockdowns in March, with a number of city districts becoming “medium” or “high-risk”.

In these areas, people were under strict orders to stay at home. All but essential businesses closed. Students began having online classes, and transport links were suspended.

Thousands of medical workers from outside of the city were also sent to the front-line. However, today, media note that they have “completed their mission”, and footage is circulating showing local residents dancing and waving to see them off.

There were also fireworks set off yesterday evening following the announcement that in areas that had recently returned to being “low-risk”, home lockdowns were to be lifted.

The Yunnan Health Commission says that 59 people are currently being treated with symptoms, including 13 who have arrived from overseas.
