"New China cases down to 19
"China reported only 19 new cases in the country today, with 17 in the city of Wuhan, where the virus originated. That's a fairly remarkable decline in a country that experienced a huge explosion of cases just a little over a month ago. Since late December, China has reported 80,000 cases, with 67,000 in Hubei province(total population is 59.02 million), home of the origin city of Wuhan. The recent declines are fairly striking, considering the degree to which other countries have recently had difficulty containing the virus. It's also a testament to the unprecedented lockdown measures the Chinese government put in place in Wuhan in late January.
"In fact, the situation has improved so much that Wuhan recently shut down 11 of the 14 temporary hospitals it had built for the influx of new patients. And in perhaps an even more important symbolic move, President Xi Jinping visited Wuhan today, the first time he has done so since the virus erupted around the New Year holiday.
"I always felt that the number one signal for the Chinese government having enough confidence to declare this as the end would be when President Xi goes to Wuhan," Mark Matthews, head of research Asia at Bank Julius Baer, told CNBC's Street Signs Asia."
