The World Health Organization warned on Friday that the window to stem the deadly coronavirus outbreak was shrinking, amid concern over a surge in cases with no clear link to China.
The outbreak which began in December has already killed more than 2,200 people and infected more than 75,500 in China. In Europe, ten Italian towns closed bars, schools and offices to try to quell fears over 16 cases of the virus. China has meanwhile pointed to official figures showing new cases in the country slowing this week as evidence that its drastic containment measures are working, but fresh infections emerged at two Beijing hospitals, and more than 500 others were reported in prisons across the country.
In hard-hit South Korea, more than 120 members of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, a religious sect in the southern city of Daegu, have now been infected.
