BEIJING: Over 2.01 billion doses of Covid-19 vaccines had been administered in China as of Friday, data from the National Health Commission showed Saturday.

Day earlier, a health official said the latest Covid-19 outbreak in China has been controlled.

The number of locally-transmitted cases has been declining for 11 consecutive days across the country, Mi Feng, spokesperson for the National Health Commission, told a press conference in Beijing.

As of Thursday, the number of medium- and high-risk areas had dropped to 38, Mi said, calling for more efforts to prevent imported cases and plugging loopholes.–Xinhua
