Health experts have highlighted challenges with the coronavirus epidemic, with the WHO warning of the risk of outbreaks coming back to life and researchers in mainland China and Hong Kong pointing out a major difficulty with diagnosis.
The alerts came on Friday as the World Health Organisation declared that the risk of global spread of the coronavirus epidemic had become .very high
the study said, referring to the disease caused by the coronavirus.
The study was co-authored by dozens of medical experts, including Zhong Nanshan, director of China.s State Key Laboratory of Respiratory Diseases, and Chinese University of Hong Kong respiratory medicine expert Professor David Hui Shu-cheong.
So far, the epidemic has killed 2,835 people on the mainland, with 47 more fatalities on Saturday
though the UN health agency stopped short of calling it a pandemic.
In a joint study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers from mainland China and Hong Kong reviewed the cases of 1,099 coronavirus patients from 552 hospitals in 30 provinces.
They found that more than half the patients did not have a fever when they went into hospital, making diagnosis more difficult
