A U.S. citizen and a Japanese national died in China after contracting the new coronavirus, said the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

In total, there were 27 confirmed foreign cases in China as of 8 a.m. Monday local time, the ministry's spokesman Geng Shuang said, according to an official translation. He added that three foreigners have recovered and were discharged.

"We can confirm a 60-year old U.S. citizen diagnosed with coronavirus died at Jinyintian Hospital in Wuhan, China on February 6. We offer our sincerest condolences to the family on their loss. Out of the respect for the family's privacy, we have no further comment," the embassy said.
