Xi'an, China: Health situation in China's Xi'an city remains critical as daily COVID-19 case count remains high even after six-day lockdown imposed recently.

According to reports, 175 new COVID-19 cases were recorded on Monday, up from 150.

The latest patients range in age from six months to 85 years, reports South China Morning Post.

Xian – known internationally as home of the Terracotta Warriors – remains at the epicentre of China’s Covid outbreak, with just seven local infections recorded across the rest of the country on Monday, the newspaper reported quoting the National Health Commission.

The city’s 13 million residents were locked down on December 23 for six days in an attempt to control the spread of an outbreak, believed to have originated in a flight from Pakistan, reported the newspaper.
