<p>A dozen new cases were reported on Wednesday, down from 22 on the previous day, while seven cases were found in the capital Beijing.</p>
<p>No new deaths were reported and 359 people remained in treatment for Covid-19, with another 118 in monitoring and isolation for testing positive for the virus while showing no symptoms or being suspected cases.</p>
<p>It comes as Australia recorded its first death from coronavirus for more than a month, increasing the country’s toll to 103.</p>
<p>China has reported 4,634 deaths from among 83,430 cases of Covid-19 since the virus was first detected in the city of Wuhan late last year.</p>
<p>Beijing’s June outbreak saw more than 200 cases, most linked to the city’s biggest wholesale market, and led to some new lockdowns and the cancellation of classes.</p>
<p>Since then, three million test samples have been taken from 2.43 million people in the city, a senior municipal health official said on Tuesday.</p>
<p>The city can now conduct more than 300,000 nucleic acid tests per day, compared with 40,000 in March, said Zhang Hua, deputy director of the Beijing Health Commission.</p>
<p>High-risk groups in the markets involved in the outbreak as well as surrounding communities were made a testing priority, along with workers in restaurants, supermarkets, food delivery workers and parcel couriers.</p>
<p>“It is very important for the early detection of infections, the timely isolation and treatment, the quick cutting off of spreading and the effective containment of the epidemic,” Mr Zhang said.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, authorities in the Australian state of Victoria said a man in his 80s had died with Covid-19, lifting the state’s total to 20.</p>
<p>The state recorded double-digit increase in cases for an eighth consecutive day, with 20 new cases confirmed on Wednesday.</p>
<p>Victoria’s chief health officer Brett Sutton said 241 cases in the state have been identified as community transmission, an increase of eight since Tuesday.</p>
