China Manufacturer Suffers Coronavirus Scare

By: Charles Rollet, Published on Feb 20, 2020

Uniview suffered a significant health scare last week after one of its employees reported a fever and initially tested positive for coronavirus. The case sparked an online frenzy and prompted Uniview to isolate the employee's colleagues, but, two days later, local health authorities concluded he did not have the disease.
