China : The World Health Organisation has urged China to share real-time data about a surge in Covid-19 cases so other countries can respond accordingly.
Covid-19 infections have risen across China this month after Beijing dismantled its zero-Covid policies, including regular PCR testing of its population.
The surge has triggered concern around the world and questions about Beijing’s data reporting, with low official figures on cases and deaths despite some hospitals and morgues being overwhelmed. The US, South Korea, India, Italy, Japan and Taiwan have all imposed testing for travellers from China in response.
