What is the current total number of confirmed cases in mainland China?

Question

Accepted Answer

The total accumulated number of confirmed cases in mainland China has reached 80,813.

As of the end of Thursday, mainland China had recorded a cumulative total of 80,813 confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus. The reported death toll associated with the outbreak in mainland China stood at 3,176 by the same period.
New Infections in Wuhan Decline

Wuhan, the city identified as the initial epicentre of the outbreak, reported five new confirmed cases on Friday. This marks the second consecutive day that the city has registered fewer than 10 new infections, indicating a sustained reduction in new transmissions.
Mainland China Reports No Local Transmissions

On Friday, the rest of mainland China reported zero locally transmitted infections. This suggests a significant containment of the virus within the general population across the country, outside of the initial epicentre and imported cases.
Imported Cases Drive New Tallies

While local transmissions have slowed, imported cases continue to be a point of concern. Shanghai reported two new cases, and Beijing recorded one new case, all of which were individuals who had travelled to China from areas with ongoing outbreaks abroad.
Overall Daily New Cases Decrease

The total number of new infections confirmed across mainland China on Thursday was eight, a decrease from the 15 cases reported the preceding day. This figure represents the lowest daily increase since the National Health Commission began publishing nationwide data in January.
