WHO calls China's antivirus effort 'aggressive, agile'

China Daily  

Bruce Aylward, head of the WHO-China Joint Mission on COVID-19’s foreign expert panel, holds up a chart showing the results of China’s epidemic control efforts at a news conference in Beijing on Monday. WANG ZHUANGFEI / CHINA DAILY While the substantial recent slowdown in the spread of novel coronavirus in China is real, and it is now reasonable to restore work activities step by step, health experts warned that risks abound of the virus flaring up again and they cautioned against complacency, the WHO-China Joint Mission on COVID-19 said at a news conference after its one-week field investigations in China. "Ambitious, agile and aggressive" control measures taken by China to control the novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic, bolstered by nationwide solidarity and advanced scientific research, have altered the curve of the outbreak for the better, averted a large number of potential cases and offered experience in improving the global response to the disease, the joint team of Chinese and World Health Organization health officials said on Monday. Efforts: New confirmed cases dropping Liang Wannian, chief of the National Health Commission's institutional reform department and head of the Chinese expert panel, said one key understanding shared by all experts is that in Wuhan, the explosive growth of new infections is effectively curbed.
