Coronavirus: Worst-hit Countries Boost Containment

   Source: Bbc Feb 29, 2020 No Comments


The coronavirus outbreak has reached a "decisive point" and has "pandemic potential", World Health Organization head Dr Tedros Ghebreyesus says.

His comments come as countries around the world battle to prevent the virus spreading further.

For a second day, more cases have been reported outside than inside China.

Iran and Italy have become major centres of infection, with people travelling from there spreading the virus further afield.

Several high-profile Iranian officials have become infected, the latest being Vice-President for Women and Family Affairs Masoumeh Ebtekar.

New Zealand, the Netherlands, Belarus, Nigeria and Lithuania have confirmed their first virus cases.
