Wuhan: A team of experts from the World Health Organization (WHO) arrived in China’s Wuhan on Thursday to investigate the origins of coronavirus, state media reported.
The 10-member team, who’ll undergo a 14-day quarantine, will interview people from research institutes, hospitals and the seafood market linked to the initial outbreak.
According to China’s National Health Commission (NHC), the WHO team will need to go through relevant quarantine procedures required under the country’s epidemic control measures before conducting fieldwork.
Last week, China had blocked the team’s arrival citing visa issues.
