A growing number of imported coronavirus cases in China risked fanning a second wave of infections when domestic transmissions had “basically been stopped”, a senior health official said on Sunday, while eased travel curbs may also add to domestic risks. It’s not a time when we can say everything is going well.”Most of those imported cases have involved Chinese returning home from abroad. In the past seven days, China has reported 313 imported cases of coronavirus but only six confirmed cases of domestic transmission, NHC’s data showed. There were 45 new coronavirus cases reported in the mainland on Saturday, down from 54 on the previous day, with all but one involving travellers from overseas. Gansu in northwestern China reported a new case on Sunday of a traveller from Hubei who drove back on a health code declaring the person free of virus.
