China Virus Death Toll Jumps to 106
The death toll from the coronavirus outbreak in China soared to 106 on Tuesday with nearly 1,300 new cases confirmed authorities said, as the infection that emerged in the central province of Hubei late last year continued to spread, Al Jazeera reports.
The health commission in Hubei, the epicentre of the outbreak, said 24 more people had died from the virus and 1,291 more people had been infected, raising the total number of infections there to 2,714.
At least 4,520 people have now been infected, mostly in China, but cases have also been confirmed elsewhere in Asia, as well as in Europe and North America among people who had recently been in Wuhan.
The Chinese government has sealed off entire cities in Hubei, isolating some 50 million people in a vast quarantine that it hopes will curb the spread of the disease. Long-distance buses and some public transport networks have also been shut down elsewhere in the country.
