Quarantine order to control disease spread

Suspected cases and close contacts to stay in special facilities while being tested

Epidemic prevention authorities in Wuhan, Hubei province, have issued a No 10 Notice, requiring suspected cases and their close contacts be quarantined at designated facilities for further medical observation.

The move came after authorities asked suspected patients in the sealed-off city, the center of the novel coronavirus outbreak, to remain home to control the spread of the virus.
