Mainland China reports 32 new confirmed cases of coronavirus

Mainland China had 32 new confirmed cases of the coronavirus on Monday, down from 39 cases a day earlier, the National Health Commission said.

All of the 32 confirmed cases involved travellers arriving from overseas, compared with 38 imported cases a day earlier.Imported cases and asymptomatic patients have become China’s chief concern after draconian containment measures succeeded in slashing the overall infection rate. China has shut its borders to foreigners as the virus spread globally, though most imported cases have involved Chinese nationals returning from overseas.

International flights have been slashed to around 3 000 a day in April from the tens of thousands previously.The total number of confirmed cases in mainland China stood at 81 740 as of Monday, according to the authority.Of the new asymptomatic cases, 18 were in central Hubei province.The National Health Commission reported no new deaths in Wuhan, capital of Hubei and epicentre of the outbreak in China, for the first time since the outbreak started.

Wuhan is due to allow people to leave the city on Wednesday for the first time since it was locked down on January 23 to curb the spread of the epidemic.
