The coronavirus death toll in Iran rose Sunday to eight — the largest outside of China — prompting neighboring countries to close their borders with the Mideast nation as panic over the outbreak mounts.

周日，伊朗的新冠肺炎死亡人数上升到8人，是中国以外死亡病例最多的国家。随着对人们新冠疫情的恐慌加剧，伊朗的邻国封锁了与这个中东国家的边境。

The number of people currently infected with the flu-like virus in Iran also is now 43, local health Ministry officials told Al Jazeera.

当地卫生部官员告诉半岛电视台，目前伊朗感染新冠病毒的人数已经达到43人。

Fears over the rapidly spreading illness caused authorities in Turkey, Pakistan and Armenia to close their countries’ borders with Iran and for Afghanistan to introduce travel restrictions involving it, the outlet reported.

该媒体报道称，由于担心疫情迅速蔓延，土耳其、巴基斯坦和亚美尼亚当局封锁了与伊朗接壤的边境，阿富汗也出台了与伊朗有关的旅行限制。

The epicenter of the outbreak in Iran is the holy city of Qom, where travelers from China brought the virus, according to Health Ministry spokesman Kianoush Jahanpour. The country had reported six deaths from the virus Saturday.

伊朗卫生部发言人基亚努什·贾汗普尔表示，此次新增确诊病例主要集中在圣城库姆，系由感染了新冠病毒的中国游客传播。周六，该国报告有6人死于该病毒。

At least seven of the newly confirmed infection cases are in Qom, along with four in the capital city of Tehran and two in the northern Gilan province, according to france24.com. One of the fatal cases included a man from the northern town of Tonekabon.

据france24网站报道，至少有7例新增确诊的感染病例发生在库姆，首都德黑兰有4例，北部吉兰省有2例。其中一例死亡病例包括一名来自北部城镇Tonekabon的男子。

“A merchant from Qom, who died of the virus, used to travel regularly to China … Flights were suspended between the two countries but he used indirect flights,” Iranian Health Minister Saeed Namaki said.

伊朗卫生部长萨义德·纳马基表示：“一名死于该病毒的库姆商人此前常常去往中国……尽管近期两国间的航班暂停，但他搭乘了间接中转航班。”

In China, the death toll had reached 2,442, with 76,936 infections, Sunday as President Xi Jinping called the virus the “largest public health emergency” in nearly a century.

周日，中国已有2442例死亡病例，76936例确诊病例，中国国家最高领导人称这是近一个世纪以来“最大的公共卫生紧急事件”。

The first case of coronavirus in Iran was reported Wednesday.
