What’s new: China announced Thursday that it “will strictly restrict” people from entering or leaving the country as it races to contain its worst wave of Covid-19 outbreaks since early 2020.

The National Immigration Administration said at a meeting on epidemic control efforts Tuesday that it will strictly implement policies on anyone entering or leaving the country, according to an administration statement (link in Chinese).
