China has reported (March 1st) a 52.1 percent recovery rate, which signifies that more than half of the patients (recorded cases) have been released.

What this means that the number of “reported infected cases” in China (80 304) (WHO data) has fallen to less than 40,000.

The 90,870 reported cases (total China and outside China) includes the cases of patients who have recovered and who have been released from the hospital.

According to Xinhua (March 1)

The recovery rate of COVID-19 patients in Chinese mainland continues to rise as the favorable effects of the prevention and control measures and medical treatment become obvious, said Chinese authorities.

The proportion of Chinese patients who recovered from the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and were discharged from hospitals continued to rise in the past week to reach 52.1 percent, a health official said on Sunday (March 1)
