NHC said China has stepped up efforts to shore up weak spots as the epidemic prevention and control have entered the most crucial stage. “Wuhan, capital of Hubei Province, remains the main battlefield,” Wang Hesheng, deputy head of NHC, said. “Improving admission and survival rates and reducing infection and fatality rates are still the most urgent tasks.”

The WHO on Monday warned against “blanket measures” over the novel coronavirus outbreak, pointing out the epidemic outside of China was only affecting a “tiny” proportion of the population.

WHO also said that with a mortality rate of around 2 per cent, COVID-19 was “less deadly” than other coronaviruses such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) or Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS). WHO officials rejected the suggestion that all cruises should be halted to avoid risking a new nest of infection like the one on the coronavirus-hit Diamond Princess off Japan.
