Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said there is "no need to panic" as a renewed coronavirus scare gripped the country today after two new cases were confirmed over the last 48 hours. One case was reported from Noida near Delhi and the other is that of a Bengaluru-based techie who had travelled to Hyderabad. Worldwide the coronavirus outbreak has killed over 3,000 people and infected nearly 90,000 others since it began in China's Wuhan district. The Union Health Ministry issued an advisory today suspending all regular visas/e-visas granted to nationals of four nations including South Korea, which has recorded the highest number of fatalities outside of mainland China. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has held an emergency meet with Health Minister Satyender Jain to take stock of the situation in the national capital, where a further six cases with "high viral loads" had been detected during testing.
