By Gawon Bae, Paula Hancocks and Tara Subramaniam, CNN Two weeks after North Korea declared victory over the coronavirus, the country has reported four suspected cases in a province near its border with China.
North Korea on Thursday said it found four new fever cases in its border region with China that may have been caused by coronavirus infections, two weeks after leader Kim Jong Un declared a widely disputed victory over COVID-19.
North Korea said Friday that the fever cases it detected earlier this week were found to be influenza, and not a Covid-19 resurgence as initially suspected.
The isolated nation said cases in Ryanggang province, which borders China, were influenza and nothing more. Officially there are no longer any coronavirus cases in North Korea.
