The world’s biggest iPhone factory will continue to be subject to Covid restrictions, after authorities in China lifted a lockdown in the district where the plant is located but said some areas were still regarded as high risk.
The city of Zhengzhou ended a district-level lockdown order for the area around the airport, the government said in a statement Wednesday. Still, several areas within that district will remain classed as “high risk,” which under the city’s Covid rules means they will continue to be subject to lockdown-like curbs. That includes restrictions on people leaving their homes.
