GDP dropped by 0.2 percent last year in Shanghai, the only provincial-level administrative region in China, other than Jilin Province, to see negative growth in 2022. Both were the result of COVID.
最后，简单介绍一下排名第 10 的安徽省。该省的增长率相对健康，为 3.5%，这使其在排行榜上比上海高出一位，将大烟队挤出了前十名。 上海去年的 GDP 下降了 0.2%，这是除吉林省之外的中国唯一一个 2022 年出现负增长的省级行政区。两者都是新冠疫情造成的。
