There is a sudden change in policy for visa issued to non-US citizens: only single visa will be issued in US. There is absolutely no exception. The duration of stay is also limited, 30-day maximum vs. 90 days for US citizens.

Hong Kong also stopped issuing multiple entry visas to non-US citizens, but it still issues double entry visas, with a reduced duration of stay (30 days). US citizens are covered by bilateral treaty.

Sources believe that this measure is temporary and is related to the Olympics. When you need to renew your visa in China, you may extend at local police station.
