A severe lockdown lasting more than two months that crippled manufacturers such as Tesla may finally be coming to a gradual end as Shanghai hopes to emerge from its worst-ever COVID outbreak in June.
In what is seen as the clearest timetable yet, deputy mayor Zong Ming announced a staged reopening with restrictions in place to guard against a sudden resurgence.
“From June 1 to mid- and late June, as long as risks of a rebound in infections are controlled, we will fully implement epidemic prevention and control, normalize management, and fully restore normal production and life in the city,” she said, according to Reuters.
