New Delhi (NVI): China has ended its lockdown of Wuhan after 76 days, the original epicenter of the coronavirus crisis, as the city reemerges from a deadly outbreak that is now raging across the globe.
But even as Wuhan reopens its borders, some restrictions within the city will remain in place, and officials warn that the threat of further infections remains far from over, according to media reports.
Meanwhile, France has become the 4th country to register more than 10,000 deaths due to coronavirus.
New York also reported 731 new fatalities, the highest overnight jump since the beginning of the outbreak. The total number of positive cases have risen to 399,081 in US.
Meanwhile, Spain recorded a slight increase in the daily death toll for the first time in five days, with 743 casualties being reported overnight.
At least 78,269 people have now died worldwide, while at least 14,30,453 have been infected, according to John Hopkins University data.
