A top Chinese health official says he believes China is experiencing the first of three expected waves of Covid infections this winter.
According to the BBC, China is seeing a surge in cases since the lifting of its most severe restrictions earlier this month.
The latest official figures appear to show a relatively low number of new daily cases.
However, there are concerns that these numbers are an underestimate due to a recent reduction in Covid testing.
The government reported only 2,097 new daily cases on Sunday.
