New delhi date. 08 February 2020, Saturday

The corona virus has started spreading worldwide. Corona virus is spreading rapidly in many countries including Japan, Singapore, Thailand, South Korea. So far in China, 723 people have died. It has been confirmed that 34,598 people have been affected. China, on the other hand, has announced the renaming of the virus.

China's National Health Commission has named the virus a temporary official name. Now the virus will be known as 'Novel coronavirus pneumonia' or 'NCP' instead of Corona virus. The Commission said at a press conference on Saturday that the new name should be adopted by government departments and organizations in China until a permanent name for the transition has been determined.

The naming of the new virus has been decided by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses. The new name has been assigned to scientific journals and the committee hopes that it will be adopted in a few days.
