China reports no new domestic COVID19 cases for first time, but sees spike in cases imported from abroad

BEIJING: China on Thursday reported no new domestic cases of the coronavirus for the first time since it started recording them in January, but recorded a spike in infections imported from abroad.

The lack of domestic infections marks a major milestone in China's containment efforts, but the rise in imported cases threatens to unravel its progress.There were 34 cases that were brought in from abroad, the biggest daily increase in two weeks, according to the National Health Commission.China's Wuhan, capital of central Hubei province where the disease appeared in humans late last year, also reported no new confirmed cases for the first time since the outbreak.

Eight new deaths were reported in China as of the end of Wednesday, all from Hubei province, taking the country's death toll to 3,245.
