More than 80,000 tourists are stranded on southern China’s Hainan Island after authorities canceled all flights and trains due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

About 500 cases of COVID-19 were reported this Sunday in the resort of Sanya, with a population of more than a million people, on the island of Hainan, known as “Chinese Hawaii”.

All flights from Sanya, a popular surf destination, were canceled this weekend and train ticket sales were suspended.

The authorities indicated that in order to leave the island, tourists must present five tests for COVID-19 carried out within seven days.

Hotels in the city will have to offer customers a 50 percent discount until restrictions are lifted, the official said.

China it is the only major economy in the world that continues to pursue the strategy of “zero covid”, with strict restrictions and long quarantines.

Factory quarantine.

China also banned workers from its largest tech companies in the city Shenzhen leave factories for at least a week due to spike in cases COVID-19 in the country.

According to Bloomberg, China uses a “closed loop” strategy whereby employees cannot be absent from their desks in order to keep production in order without the risk of further infection.
