    Also, the number of new confirmed cases of COVID-19 outside Hubei, the epicenter province of the outbreak, was 258 reported on Thursday, down from the highest peak of 890 on Feb. 3, Zeng said.

    Simon Says

    A cautiously optimistic person would say, it seems the worst is over for China, while other countries face big growth in new Coronavirus cases. Many Chinese cities are slowly coming back to normal, although fears and restrictions remain. It's going to a take a while before China becomes the bustling place it is famous for being. It's a good time to be in the business of health.
