The latest official figures in China revealed that 90% of people infected with coronavirus had recovered, and that only 5,120 patients remained in hospitals for treatment.
The Public Health Authority said it was recording a decrease in the number of infected people every day, noting that among the 81,093 people confirmed to be infected with the coronavirus, 72,702 people recovered and were discharged from hospitals.
The authorities said that the death rate outside Wuhan, Hubei, the epicenter of the epidemic, represented only 0.88%.
In Hubei, 67,800 people contracted the virus, 3,153 of whom died, and the death toll in this province was 4.65%.
It is worth noting that in recent days, the Chinese authorities have not reported any new domestic infections with the coronavirus in Wuhan.
Experts now believe that the strategy of China and South Korea to test every person who has been in contact with a patient is more effective in limiting the spread of the virus.
Countries like the United States, Britain, and Italy have not tested people without symptoms, except for doctors who have frequently contacted people with coronavirus.
On another hand, a recent report by Foreign Policy quoted a source, who was in communication with Chinese doctors who worked on testing and preventing the coronavirus from spreading, that they managed to defeat this serious virus in 29 days.
The methodology was pretty simple, the key thing for defeating COVID-19 is strong and strict isolation. For doctors, the crucial element in spreading this disease was the communication and touching within the families.
"So, they’ve decided to maintain strict isolation even within the families. Naturally, this is not the only element that affected the spreading of this virus. The next big thing they did was the isolation of specialized hospitals for COVID-19 patients only. Last but not least, the third element was obtaining the necessary equipment," the report read.
