In China, people are diagnosed with a cure and are discharged, and then they are positive or die again. Hong Kong health officials have confirmed that dogs have also been infected with Corona19.

The cumulative confirmation number of corona 19 in China is about 80,000.

More than 50,000 people have been discharged, Chinese health officials say.

However, there are also cases of being discharged and positive again, or even dying.

A man in his 30s in Wuhan was discharged after being cured on the 27th of last month, but he was hospitalized again for the last two days because of his discomfort.

In Guangdong, 14% of patients discharged after being cured were found to be infected with Corona19.

Inaccurate testing, loose cure, and discharge criteria are the cause.

Because of this, several hospitals in Wuhan have temporarily suspended the patient's discharge, and in Shanghai, after further tests, they are given a cure.

The Chinese government, which claims there is no evidence that the Corona 19 virus originated from China, has also dismissed the Chinese apology that China should apologize for its worldwide spread.

Meanwhile, Hong Kong health officials have confirmed that the suspect's companion dog has been infected with Corona19.

Authorities emphasized that Corona 19 appears to be the first case of human-to-animal transmission, but there is no evidence that pets spread it.
