BEIJING (Reuters) - The city of Wuhan, the original epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in China, conducted 1,470,950 nucleic acid tests for the virus on Friday, the local health authority said on Saturday, compared with 1,000,729 tests the previous day.
Wuhan kicked off a campaign on May 14 to look for asymptomatic carriers - infected people who show no outward sign of illness - after confirming on May 9-10 its first cluster of COVID-19 infections since its lockdown was lifted on April 8.

Local health commission officials in Wuhan released data showing 6.68 million people underwent nucleic acid tests as part of a mass-testing effort to suppress concerns over a second wave of COVID-19 cases in the Hubei region of China. According to analysis conducted by Bloomberg News Tuesday, 206 people who were tested were listed as asymptomatic cases. Wuhan began testing its entire population of 11 million people “at all costs” on May 12, just days after new infections emerged following 76 days of lockdown.
