About 50,000 elderly in overall 682 nursing homes have been well protected in Beijing. The nursing facilities in Beijing have been in closed-off management since Jan. 27. Since June 15, Beijing has implemented more targeted measures to quell a flare-up of the domestically-transmitted COVID-19 cases.
