Summary
[edit]DescriptionQuarantine camp outside Shijiazhuang, China.jpg |
English: 2020 was a year marked by the Covid-19 pandemic. More than two million deaths around the world were recorded. According to official news, China has largely brought the virus under control but a sudden rise in infections in the province of Hebei which surrounds Beijing has prompted mass testing, strict lockdowns and the moving of entire villages into quarantine facilities to avoid a resurgence of the pandemic. According to media, a massive quarantine camp that can hold 4,160 people has been built just outside Shijiazhuang, the capital of the Hebei province. The camp is meant to house close contacts of coronavirus patients as authorities carry out its contact tracing and testing programme. Work on the facility began on 13 January and the first section of the camp is complete and ready for use, while construction on a second phase is ongoing. These images, acquired by the Copernicus Sentinel-2A and Sentinel-2B satellites on 12, 17 and 22 January 2021, show the three different construction stages of the quarantine camp outside Shijiazhuang. With a revisit time of 5 days on average at the equator, the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites deliver free and open data that can be used to monitor rapid land changes around the world. |
