Millions of people in China's financial hub were confined to their homes on Monday as the eastern half of Shanghai went into lockdown to curb the nation's biggest Covid outbreak.

Authorities announced late on Sunday that it would carry out a two-phased lockdown of the city of around 25 million people to carry out mass testing.

But Shanghai has in recent weeks become China's Covid hotspot, and on Monday another record high was reported with 3,500 new confirmed cases. The lockdown will last until Friday, then switch to the more heavily populated western Puxi section that includes the historic Bund riverfront. Shanghai officials, however, have repeatedly stressed the importance of keeping the eastern economic engine running.
