Chinese President Xi Jinping donned a face mask and had his temperature checked while visiting medical workers and patients affected by the deadly coronavirus that has killed more than 900 people.
The toll has overtaken global fatalities in the 2002-03 SARS epidemic when China drew international condemnation for covering up cases - though it has drawn praise from the WHO this time.
The Chinese president, who has called the virus a "demon", made a rare visit to meet frontline medical staff at a hospital treating infected patients.
