Expert says isolation has vital role in virus prevention

Sharing China's experiences in fighting COVID-19 would help to prevent the disease from spreading further globally, said Bindanda Mvuama Van Timothee, from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

"I like living in Guangzhou, especially at a time when the local government had introduced timely and efficient measures to prevent and control the novel coronavirus pandemic," he said.

"Sharing China's experience of fighting against the COVID-19 pandemic would help us better prevent and control the disease when we return to Africa."
