China’s capital city Beijing has kicked off mass testing for millions of residents after a spike in Covid cases.
The Chaoyang district reported 26 cases over the weekend – the highest number so far in Beijing’s latest surge.

It comes amid fears that Beijing could face a similar situation to Shanghai, which has seen some 25 million people shut in their homes for weeks.
