China tightened travel restrictions in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang province, requiring people arriving in the city from regions deemed to have high infection risks to undergo a two-week quarantine.
Others arriving from less risky areas must show proof of good health. Locals "in principle" must stay in the city or show proof of health to be allowed to leave.
Since mid-July, the Xinjiang outbreak centred in Urumqi has seen more than 600 cases of illness, including 112 new ones reported on Friday.
