Three of the cases in Beijing involved travellers from Spain while one came from Italy and the other from Thailand. Against this background, the Beijing government has said anyone arriving from abroad will be transferred to city quarantine facilities for 14 days, starting Monday. All expenses during the period will be borne by those in quarantine, city deputy secretary general Chen Bei said. Three of the new imported cases are from Shanghai, including a Chinese native who lived in the Italian city of Milan. Zhejiang province did not say where its four imported cases were from.
