As I'm sure you noticed, Dr. Niman, this is inconsistent with today's Hubei report which shows 116 new deaths, whereas this China report shows only 17 additional deaths since yesterday. The South China Morning Post is currently reporting 1383 deaths, an increase of 20 (the chart figures automatically update):

From your article Jon:

"He also called for worldwide joint efforts to contain the virus, adding that China had effectively prevented the virus from spreading to other countries."

Uh...perhaps he hasn't heard about the lock-down in Vietnam and community spread clusters in Hong Kong, Singapore, and other countries... or, the Diamond Princess
