BEIJING - The new coronavirus has infected 234 people in two prisons outside the province at the center of the epidemic and top officials deemed responsible for the outbreaks have been fired, authorities said on Friday.

The jail discovered its first case in a prison officer on Feb. 13. Seven prison officials were also fired, authorities told a media briefing. The surge in cases detected at the two prisons ended 16 straight days of declines in new cases in China excluding Hubei. Hubei also revised up its total number of confirmed infection cases by 220 to account for cases in the province’s prison system. It did not say when the cases had been diagnosed.
