チベット自治区では8月に入ってから新型コロナウィルス感染が増大し、数千人の中国内地からの観光客が足止めを喰らっており、隔離施設もほぼ満員状態であるという。


Earlier this month Tibet reported its first cases since 2020. Mass testing has been carried out in cities such as Lhasa and Shigatse. As of Thursday, the region had reported 216 confirmed cases and 3,479 asymptomatic cases.

Thousands of tourists have been barred this week either from sightseeing or returning home until they are confirmed to be clear of the disease, according to the Chinese publication Caixin. Quarantine rooms in areas across the provincial borders are also reportedly full.

As Tibet became a Covid hotspot, hundreds of vehicles were seen stuck on a highway this week after being denied entry to the neighbouring Yunnan province. On Tuesday, police in Tibet’s Markam county asked travellers to avoid leaving the region via a highway that goes to Yunnan and Sichuan provinces.
