The Chinese authorities in Shanghai reported Saturday a record number of symptomatic Covid-19 cases, as several other Chinese regions strengthened control with an aim to limit the Omicron variant.

The news agency said that the Zhengzhou Airport Economic Zone, a central Chinese manufacturing area - announced Friday a 14-day lockdown "to be adjusted according to the epidemic situation."
