A passenger who traveled on a special flight from Germany to China has tested positive for the coronavirus. The chartered flight was carrying 180 passengers from Frankfurt to Tianjin after they received special permission to travel from the Chinese authorities.

China has barred most non-citizens from entering the country to prevent the introduction of new infections. DW correspondent Mathias Bölinger was on the flight and reports from quarantine in Tianjin.
