The city began reopening in early April.<\/p>\n<p>The cluster was just six cases: an 89-year-old symptomatic man and five asymptomatic cases. All of the infected lived in the same residential community. However, it was enough to spook government officials.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/coronavirus-live-updates\/2020\/05\/11\/853731869\/wuhan-reports-new-covid-19-cases-the-first-in-more-than-a-month\">NPR&rsquo;s Emily Feng reported from Beijing that<\/a>&nbsp;&ldquo;The rise of such hard-to-detect asymptomatic cases has alarmed public health authorities in China, who have ramped up contact tracing and testing efforts.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/wuhan-coronavirus-testing-3ad9b80a-20eb-406e-9333-dcb74a0bcfdb.html\">China state media<\/a>&nbsp;announced Tuesday that it has ordered all residents of Wuhan&mdash;roughly 11 million persons&mdash;to be tested within the next 10 days.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, the mayor of Seoul shut down bars and restaurants over the weekend&mdash;just days after South Korea had eased restrictions and allowed businesses to reopen&mdash;due to a spike of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/coronavirus-south-korea-cluster-reopened-nightclubs-delays-reopening-schools-today-2020-05-11\/\">86 new COVID-19 cases<\/a>. Authorities identified a 29-year-old who visited five nightclubs and a bar while infected with the virus,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/coronavirus-live-updates\/2020\/05\/10\/853468647\/south-korea-records-spike-in-new-coronavirus-cases-after-nightclub-outbreak\">sparking an outbreak of at least 54 cases<\/a>, according to NPR. The uptick also led South Korean officials&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/coronavirus-south-korea-cluster-reopened-nightclubs-delays-reopening-schools-today-2020-05-11\/\">to delay the reopening of schools<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Germany, too, saw increases in cases after restrictions eased last week.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Releasing lockdowns is both complex and difficult,&rdquo; WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who goes by Dr. Tedros, said Monday. What&rsquo;s happening in these places are &ldquo;signs of the challenges that may lie ahead.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Fortunately, all three countries have systems in place to detect and respond to a resurgence in cases,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Though many areas of the US are beginning to reopen, it is unclear if the country has those systems in place to handle resurgence. In a Senate hearing earlier Tuesday, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country&rsquo;s leading infectious disease expert and director of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told Congress that resurgence &ldquo;absolutely will occur&rdquo; after we reopen.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;If you do not do an adequate response, we will have the deleterious consequence of more infections and more deaths,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"tags\">\n<div><strong>See Campaign: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/coronavirus-live-updates\/2020\/05\/11\/853731869\/wuhan-reports-new-covid-19-cases-the-first-in-more-than-a-month\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/coronavirus-live-updates\/2020\/05\/11\/853731869\/wuhan-reports-new-covid-19-cases-the-first-in-more-than-a-month<\/a><br \/><b>Contact Information:<\/b><br \/>BETH MOLE<\/p>\n<p><b>Tags:<\/b><br \/><a href=\"\"><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/wire\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Wire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/global-regions\/united-states\/\" rel=\"category tag\">United States<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/language\/english\/\" rel=\"category tag\">English<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"image\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"cwdfimg\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Contact Information:<\/h3>\n<p>BETH MOLE<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China ordered all Wuhan residents get tested for COVID-19&mdash;that&rsquo;s ~11 million people.
