North Korea claims it is on the path to 'finally defuse' its Covid-19 surge while its Asian neighbours battle a fresh wave of infections
Daily new cases of fever in North Korea reported by KCNA have been declining since the country first acknowledged in mid-May that it was battling an outbreak of Covid-19.
"The anti-epidemic campaign is improved to finally defuse the crisis completely," the state news agency KCNA said on Monday. The North says 99.98 percent of its 4.77 million fever patients since late April have fully recovered, but due to an apparent lack of testing, it has not released any figures of those that proved positive.
