The COVID-19 situation in mainland China is far from better. The Chinese mainland reported more than 5,600 new local COVID-19 infections on Friday. 

Shanghai remains the hardest hit city, with more than 5,400 new cases, the highest number in a single day since the city went under closed-off management earlier this month. Shanghai has also seen more than 9,500 asymptomatic infections and 52 new deaths.

China National Immigration Administration (NIA) said Wednesday that it will continue to stay "on the highest alert" and not sway on cross-border management policies in light of the current COVID situation.

Here are some latest updates:

  • Beijing supermarkets are doubling their inventory as residents stockpile groceries in anticipation of tightened COVID-19 control measures
  • China will further tap consumption potential amid COVID-19 resurgence
  • China approves clinical trials of Sinopharm's Omicron-specific vaccine
  • Shanghai has introduced more free testing sites as the city prepares for work resumption.
  • China has vowed to stabilize economic growth while maintaining COVID-19 prevention and control and strengthening macro-economic policy adjustment to realize the goals of economic and social development this year
  • China's "dynamic-zero" policy against COVID-19 is key to curbing the country's COVID-19 outbreak, in line with pursuing economic progress, a senior health official said on Friday
  • Beijing adds three more high-risk areas for COVID-19
  • See what steps China has been taking to keep its supply chains running smoothly
  • Clinical research for the newly-developed vaccine targeting the Omicron variant of COVID-19 will take about three to four months, said an expert from the vaccine's manufacturer, China National Biotec Group (CNBG)

Service robots at temporary hospitals have become a force that's hard to ignore in Shanghai's fight against the latest COVID-19 resurgence. Watch these robots in action.
