Two Coronavirus-Diagnosed Patients Recovered in Oman

The Omani Minister of Health said on Monday that two out of six coronavirus-diagnosed patients have been recovered.

He added that the other cases are under direct medical follow-up, noting that they are in stable health condition.

This comes after the Omani aviation authorities on Sunday suspended Italian tourism flights to its Salala airport for a month to curb the spread of the virus.

Italy has reported 34 deaths from the coronavirus, and almost 1700 cases.

There have been six reported cases of the virus in Oman, all of which involve travelers who came from Iran.

Oman and several other countries issued a travel ban on Iran to contain the outbreak.

The Omani authorities have taken several precautionary decisions to combat the spread of the deadly virus.

China-originated coronavirus, also known as (COVID-19), has now spread to seven Arab countries, namely Bahrain, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Iraq, Lebanon, Oman, and Egypt.

Last week, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, and Iraq reported their first cases of the virus, meanwhile, the other Arab countries reported many cases over the last few days.

The deadly virus has also been reported daily around the world.

In mainland China, 2,592 people have died, while more than 79,000 infections have been confirmed, according to government figures.

Other hundreds of cases have been confirmed elsewhere, as the virus is now present in at least 40 countries.

It is worth mentioning, Liu Zhiming, the director of a leading Hospital in China’s central city of Wuhan, the epicenter of a coronavirus outbreak, died of the disease Tuesday morning, according to state television.

He is the first known hospital director to have died from this deadly virus.

China is trying with all its might to confront the effects resulting from the outbreak of the new Coronavirus, via a series of strong and effective measures that seek to reduce the number of deaths and injuries caused by this deadly virus.
