Spas, cinemas and mahjong salons in the Chinese city of Harbin have been ordered to close to prevent Covid-19 from spreading in poorly ventilated spaces, state television reported.

The temporary shutdowns are part of a range of restrictions imposed on the northeastern city after one case of community transmission, the report said, citing the Harbin government.

According to Reuters, religious activities are also suspended, tourist attractions are ordered to operate at half capacity, and visits are banned at retirement homes.
