BEIJING: The number of fatalities from China's new coronavirus epidemic jumped to 1,011 nationwide on Tuesday after hard-hit Hubei province reported 103 new deaths.

There are now more than 42,200 confirmed cases across China, based on previously released figures from the government. Chinese President Xi Jinping met with medical workers and patients affected at a hospital in Beijing on Monday, where he called for"more decisive measures" to contain the outbreak, said state broadcaster CCTV.

Ahead of the team's arrival, WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus warned there had been some"concerning instances" of cases overseas in people with no travel history to China.
