A whopping 80,000 tourists have been left stranded on a beautiful island dubbed 'China's Hawaii' after a Covid outbreak sparked a strict lockdown.
The tropical southern island of Hainan in the South China Sea had a nigh-perfect coronavirus track record, having recorded just two positive symptomatic Covid-19 cases in the whole of last year.
Fast forward to this month, however, and the number of cases has suddenly soared, prompting a lockdown in the city of Sanya and leaving tens of thousands of tourists like Yang stuck on the island.
