Coronavirus: Durbanite describes life in China
Updated | By Gcinokuhle Malinga
Public panic in China over coronavirus has eased. That's what a Durban woman living in the Tianjin province has described the mood in China, as World Health Organisation experts try to learn more about "Covid-19".
Haseena Nabi says since the outbreak, wearing protective gloves and face masks have become the norm.
While she's pleased with the government's handling of the crisis so far - the 28-year-old says she can't help but feel a little anxious.

"Why people are sort of calm now is because they've started clinical trials. I'm not saying people are super at ease or super chilled but the fact that there's progress like how they've started clinical trials of antiviral drugs that could possibly be a cure," she says.
"Its those type of things that are getting people at ease. The initial panic, what I've seen online has definitely calmed down," she says.
