Currently, both mother and daughter are in stable condition, being treated in separate hospital wards.
This occurs after a baby in Wuhan was diagnosed with coronavirus 30 hours after birth on February 2.
The baby’s mother had tested positive for the virus before giving birth, but it is not yet clear how the disease was transmitted to the child, either in the womb or after birth through contact with the mother.
