BEIJING, CHINA - JUNE 17:(Editors Note:photo taken with mobile phone camera) Chinese epidemic control workers wear protective suits as they wait to assist people who have had contact with the Xinfadi Wholesale Market or someone who could have visited the area, to receive a nucleic acid test for COVID-19 at a testing center on June 17, 2020 in Beijing, China. Authorities are trying to contain the outbreak linked to the Xinfadi wholesale food market, Beijing's biggest supplier of produce and meat. Several neighborhoods have been locked down and at least two other food markets were closed, as tens of thousands of people are being tested for COVID-19 at sites set up around the city. The outbreak has triggered fears of a second wave of infection after 56 straight days with no domestically transmitted cases in the capital. More than 8,000 vendors and staff at Xinfadi have already been tested, according to city officials, who are using contact tracing to reach an estimated 200,000 people who have visited the market since May 30.
