Shanghai achieved on Tuesday the long-awaited milestone of three consecutive days with no new COVID-19 cases outside quarantine zones but most residents will have to put up with confinement for a while longer before resuming more normal life.
For other cities in China that have been under lockdown, a third day with no new cases in the community usually means "zero COVID" status and the beginning of the lifting of restrictions.
Shanghai plans to resume outdoor activities in stages, with some shops reopening this week, but with most restrictions on movement remaining in place until May 21, after which public transport and other services will resume gradually.More people were allowed out of their homes this week, with some joggers and dog walkers spotted. One man was seen fishing in the Shanghai river.
It was not clear how many shops re-opened this week but in one positive sign, delivery apps showed more options for people to order from Tuesday. A sign on the shop's door said customers had to show a negative COVID test and a pass showing they are allowed out of home, among other requirements. Only 20 customers at a time are allowed inside.
