State Department Increases Travel Risk To China

Tourists are advised to review their trip to China “because of the new coronavirus first detected in Wuhan.”

"In some areas, there is an increased risk," the State Department said in a statement.

The Foreign Ministry also does not recommend going to Hubei Province.

Earlier, the United States offered China assistance in connection with the coronavirus.

It also became known that the Chinese authorities in 2020 will direct 60.33 billion yuan ($ 8.75 billion) to combat new type of pneumonia.

Academician of the RAMS Dmitry Lvov, editor-in-chief of the journal “Issues of Virology” and director of the Research Institute of Virology of the RAMS, assessed the situation with the spread of coronavirus in an interview with the FBA “Economics Today”.
