China
on Friday reported 121 more deaths from the coronavirus outbreak, 116
of which are from the epicentre of the infection in Hubei Province
alone, bringing to at least 1,380 the total number of deaths across the
country.
The latest toll reflected the removal of some
deaths that had been double counted in Hubei, the health commission
said. On Thursday, Chinese health officials had already reported 1,367 deaths.
Hubei and its capital Wuhan, where the infection now known as COVID-19 is
thought to have originated in late December, also reported a further
4,823 new cases of the infection, taking the total in the province alone
to 51,986.
