Almost all the new infections - the biggest daily count since 6 March - involve travelers from overseas. Just two out of the 99 cases were locally transmitted. Shanghai, China’s commercial hub, contribute to more than half of the imported cases. The city reported 52 new coronavirus cases on April 11, all involving Chinese nationals traveling from overseas, the municipal health commission said on Sunday. Of Shanghai’s new cases, 51 flew in on the same flight from Russia on 10 April. The 52nd case involves a Chinese national arriving in Shanghai from a trip to Canada. China’s northeastern province of Heilongjiang reported 21 new imported cases on 11 April, all involving Chinese nationals traveling from Russia. The country’s tally of infections now stands at 82,052, while the death toll stands at 3,339.
