The city of Shanghai in China will be in isolation for nine days, due to the spread of the coronavirus.
Authorities have so far refused to close the city of 25 million to avoid destabilizing the economy, as Shanghai is an important financial center, writes the BBC.
But after Shanghai recorded the highest daily increase in Covid 19 cases on Saturday since the outbreak began two years ago, authorities reversed the decision.
The blockade will take place in two phases, with the eastern part of the city under restrictions from tomorrow until April 1 and the western part from April 1 to April 5.
Public transportation will be suspended, and companies and factories will suspend operation or work online.
