Coronavirus patient released in Shandong
On Saturday, one novel coronavirus patient was cured and discharged from a hospital in Jining, East China's Shandong province, bringing the total number of cured novel coronavirus patients in Shandong to three.
The 34-year-old female patient returned to Jining on Jan 23 from Wuhan, epicenter of the novel coronavirus outbreak. Without going home, she went directly to a designated hospital in the city to seek medical treatment for fever and cough. Two days later, she was diagnosed with the novel coronavirus, according to the provincial health commission.
After treatment, she went through the test for the novel coronavirus on Jan 29 and 30, and both times showed negative results. Medical experts evaluated her situation and concluded she had met the recovery criteria for the infection set by the National Health Commission.
Shandong reported a total of 206 novel coronavirus cases as of Feb 1 at noon. A total of 5,400 people remain under medical observation.
