China Daily Life Amid Global Pandemic

BEIJING, CHINA - NOVEMBER 28: Epidemic control workers wear PPE to protect against the spread of COVID-19 as they disinfect an area on the Liangma River, a popular area for local residents and the site of a protest against COVID measures the day before, on November 28, 2022 in Beijing, China. In recent days, China has been recording its highest number of daily COVID-19 cases since the pandemic began, as authorities are sticking to their strict zero tolerance approach to containing the virus with lockdowns, mandatory testing, mask mandates, and quarantines as it struggles to contain outbreaks. In an effort to try to bring rising cases under control in the capital, the government has closed stores and restaurants for inside dining, switched schools to online studies, and told people to work from home among other things.
