Chinese officials agreed on Tuesday to allow international experts from the United Nations health agency to enter the country as soon as possible and join in efforts to combat a coronavirus outbreak that has killed more than 100 people.
The World Health Organization's director-general, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said after a meeting in Beijing with China's President Xi Jinping that their agreement will help to "guide global response efforts" focused around the outbreak first detected in December in the central Chinese city of Wuhan.
