NEW DELHI, India (AP) — Governments are stepping up testing and reimposing restrictions as newly confirmed coronavirus infections surge in many countries.
Several Indian states reimposed partial or full lockdowns after the total number of cases jumped by nearly 100,000 in one week to about 548,000.
The country reported just 12 new cases yesterday, including seven in Beijing.
South Korean authorities reported 47 new cases as they struggled to curb outbreaks that have spread from Seoul to other regions.
Widespread testing and contact tracing helped South Korea contain its initial outbreak in which it was finding hundreds of new cases a day in late February and early March.
