China has reported no new local cases of the coronavirus disease or COVID-19 for a second consecutive day.
Health officials, however, reports that there are new imported cases of COVID-19.
This is welcome news as different countries around the world go on lockdown to prevent the spread of the disease.
The National Health Commission reported only three new fatalities due to COVID-19, a sign that the number of deaths has slowed dramatically since its peak last January.
The previous epicenter of the virus has a death toll of 3,248 lower than Italy’s death toll of more than 3,400.
There have been nearly 81,000 infections in China but fewer than 7,000 people remain in health facilities.
The virus reportedly originated from a wet market in Wuhan City.
China, however, says that they are concerned now on cases or second wave of infection coming from people abroad. 39 cases from foreigners were recorded, bringing the total to 228.
