Shanghai is now under strict lockdown, in marked contrast to its previous strategy to tackle Covid.
Some 25 million people in Shanghai have lived under strict lockdown since the beginning of April, amid a surge in Omicron cases.
It's Shanghai's first experience of a city-wide lockdown. It previously tackled growing infection rates through smaller localised lockdowns. But in late March, Shanghai began seeing huge numbers - with more than 2,500 cases recorded on 27 March alone.
