Of these, more than 15,000 cases are asymptomatic.
In Shanghai, 268 Govt-19 symptoms and more than 13,000 asymptomatic infections have been reported in recent days following extensive testing.
The province of Jilin in northeastern China has also been hit hard by the current epidemic.
Anyone affected in China should go to a hospital or isolated facility. Isolated centers have been set up in gyms and exhibition halls in Shanghai, which are already approaching their maximum potential.
Authorities in the Chinese metropolitan area have registered more than 70,000 infections since the beginning of March. On Monday, the number of daily infections crossed 10,000 for the first time.
The ban on people moving west of Shanghai will be in effect from Friday to Tuesday, but it was extended indefinitely and residents were told to stay in their homes.
