More than 3.5 lakh have died too across the world, but very few new cases are being reported in China for the last few days.

The Haryana government has issued orders to "completely seal" all borders with Delhi except for essential services, state Home Minister Anil Vij said on Thursday, over concerns of coronavirus spreading with people travelling from the national capital.

Coronavirus cases have been increasing in districts sharing a border with the national capital, Anil Vij said in an order. "The main reason behind the spike in cases is the entry of people from Delhi into areas of Haryana which share its border with Delhi," he said.
