SHANGHAI (Bloomberg): Shanghai posted a new daily record for Covid-19 cases, as much of the city remains under some kind of movement restrictions with ongoing disruptions to food and manufacturing supply chains.
The city of 25 million saw 26,330 new infections on Tuesday (April 12), China Central Television said early Wednesday. That’s up from the 23,342 reported for Monday, and the previous all-time high of 26,087 on Sunday, as officials struggle to tame what has become China’s most significant virus crisis since the pandemic began.
