BEIJING (Reuters) -China reported on Thursday a further decline in new locally transmitted COVID-19 cases in the country's current outbreak, now in its fourth week.
China posted five new locally transmitted infections for Aug. 18, down from six a day earlier, according to the National Health Commission. Three of them were in Jiangsu province, with one in Shanghai and another in Yunnan province.
Including imported infections detected in travellers arriving from abroad, China reported a total of 46 new confirmed cases for Aug. 18, compared with 28 a day earlier.

Separately, China reported 30 new asymptomatic cases, which it does not classify as confirmed infections, up from a day earlier. All of them were imported cases from overseas.
No new deaths were reported.
As of Aug. 18, mainland China had recorded 94,546 confirmed cases, with the cumulative death toll unchanged at 4,636.

No investor will want to shift their factories and investment out of China. China is best place to invest and setup factories. Low cost is not everything.
 
I come from Zhuzhou, Hunan.
At the beginning of August, we were the 6th most covid-19 patients city in China.
Later, we closed the city for 14 days and conducted 4 rounds of nucleic acid examination throughout the city.
No new medical records were found in rounds 3 and 4.
Now, we're safe.

Not safe from Mother Nature. Mother Nature is a biotch.
