Russia has more than 6,000 Chinese nationals under observation for signs of coronavirus infection
Russia discharged a Chinese national from a hospital in the Siberian city of Chita on Wednesday after he recovered from a novel coronavirus infection, local authorities said as China reported another drop in new cases.
Russia, which has a 4,300 km land border with China, has heavily restricted travel to its neighbour. In St Petersburg, a woman described on Instagram how she escaped from a hospital on Friday where she had been put in quarantine after she reported having a sore throat following a holiday in China. This map by TRT World shows the number of patients who have been diagnosed with the coronavirus across the world as of 0800 GMT on February 12, 2020. China on Wednesday reported a drop in the number of new cases of a viral infection and 97 more deaths, pushing the total dead past 1,100 as postal services worldwide said delivery was being affected by the cancellation of many flights to China.
The illness was first reported in December and the outbreak has largely been concentrated to the central Chinese city of Wuhan. Zhong Nanshan, a leading Chinese epidemiologist, said that while the virus outbreak in China may peak this month, the situation at the centre of the crisis remains more challenging.
