Hangzhou reports two local asymptomatic cases

Hangzhou, capital of East China's Zhejiang province, reported two new COVID-19 cases, local authorities said Thursday night.

The two, surnamed Qu and Zhu, were previously on a trip outside Hangzhou and traveled back on Monday. They were later diagnosed as asymptomatic COVID-19 sufferers and have been sent to designated hospitals.

One of the two is a staff worker with the Zhejiang University Museum of Art and Archaeology, located at the university's Zijingang campus.

Both the museum and the campus were closed Thursday afternoon, the university said late Thursday.
