Reuters reports that the closure of schools and non-essential businesses in Hubei has been extended from the original deadline of tomorrow to March 11th. Also, South Korea shoots up by 53 new cases to a total of 104, and has delayed school opening in Daegu. Iran has added 3 more confirmed cases.
In general the confirmed case counts seem to be falling, but this seems to be more an artifact of changed reporting standards in China than any real peak to the pandemic.
In a mixed day for Germ Boat #2, the Diamond Princess count went up only 13 cases to 634, but two of the infected passengers have now died.
P.S. China has hit 75,000 cases.
