Chinese officials say a total of 36,117 patients infected with the novel coronavirus had been discharged from hospitals.

These patients were discharged after recovering from the virus, Chinese health authority said on Friday.

On Thursday 3,622 people walk out of hospital after recovery, the National Health Commission said in its daily report.

Local Chinese media however reported that by the end of Thursday, a total of 78,824 confirmed cases had been reported in 31 provincial-level regions on Chinese mainland, and 2,788 people had died of the disease.

Coronavirus continues to spread fast across the world with the rate of spread getting faster outside of China, where the virus first broke out.

Victims of coronavirus often suffer from respiratory illness and this new strain of coronavirus was not previously identified in humans.

The virus is a global public health emergency, according to the World Health Organisation and there are concerns it could soon turn out into a global pandemic.

WHO advises that people stay at home if they begin to feel unwell, even with mild symptoms such as headache and a slight runny nose, until they recover.

Avoiding contact with others and visits to medical facilities will allow these facilities to operate more effectively and help protect people and others from possible COVID-19 and other viruses.
