The World Health Organization said on Thursday that China had welcomed an international team of investigators into Covid-19 expected to travel to the country in early January.
Babatunde Olowokure, the WHO's regional emergencies director in the Western Pacific, told a news conference that the organisation was in talks with Beijing over where the investigators would travel to within the country.
