Wuhan, the central China city hardest hit by the epidemic, has reduced the number of COVID-19 patients in its hospitals to zero by Sunday, according to China's National Health Commission.

The result is achieved with the hard efforts of medical workers in Wuhan and those who were dispatched to assist Wuhan in the fight against the virus from across the country, said Mi Feng, a spokesperson for China's National Health Commission, at a press conference in Beijing.
