Nine infected with covid have been identified in Binjari. Whereas earlier residents of this area were allowed to leave their homes to buy food, play sports or get vaccinated, now they are allowed to do so only for urgent medical care or as required by law. Food will be delivered to them by the police and the army. It was noted that the community is poor, many do not have electricity, 15 people live in houses, and the heat is 40 degrees outside, so they experience quite real torment, being locked up around the clock.
9 identified infected, as well as 38 of their closest contacts, were removed from their place of residence and moved to special camps in Howard Springs, and a total of 200 people live in this place (the rest were not sent to the camp, but simply locked at home).
Dozens of police officers and the army were involved in the process of suppressing the outbreak.

Trade giant Alibaba said its Singles Day sales hit another record, but grew by only 8.5%. The number has traditionally been in double digits since the event was launched in 2009 - it subsequently eclipsed American sales on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Last year, the one-day event lasted for 11 days. However, the Chinese state-run Securities Daily criticized the emphasis on high turnover as incompatible with the country's new values.
Analysts said the underperformance this year also reflects the concerns of Chinese consumers who are fatigued by aggressive promotions and poor customer service. People are becoming more cautious about spending due to new outbreaks of the pandemic and the resulting supply disruptions - as a result, the Chinese economy showed the slowest growth in a year in the third quarter.
Alibaba's dominance is weakened by the influence of competitors JD.com and Pinduoduo, which have become more active in competing for consumer attention. JD.com stretched "Singles Day" by 11 days and reported record transactions worth 349.1 billion yuan ($ 54.5 billion) - an annual growth of 28.6%.
