SHANGHAI, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Mainland china reported 32 new Covid-19 cases on Thursday, marking the highest daily increase in more than a month and up sharply from nine cases reported a day earlier, the Chinese health authority said on Friday.
Although the latest increase still remains well below the peaks seen at the height of the outbreak in china early this year, it is the biggest since Aug 10 and suggests continued Covid-19 risks stemming from overseas travellers coming into the country as the pandemic rages on in other parts of the world.
