YEREVAN, JANUARY 29, ARMENPRESS. The Chinese national who has been placed under isolation medical supervision in Armenia has tested negative for pneumonia, the healthcare ministry said.

As reported earlier, two Chinese tourists have been hospitalized after one of them developed fever and was not allowed to cross into Georgia on a tourist bus from Armenia. 

Although the lung x-rays did not reveal pneumonia, the two Chinese nationals will remain under medical supervision as Armenia is on high alert to prevent the import of the novel coronavirus from abroad.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
