SHANGHAI—A handful of local COVID-19 cases in eastern parts of China have prompted Shanghai city to limit tourism activities and a nearby city to cut public transport services, as the Chinese regime insists on zero tolerance against letting clusters spread.

National health officials had said earlier this month that China’s aim was not to remain at zero infections but to make sure local clusters were detected and contained as quickly as possible.
