        25-Feb-15 76M [is most likely Lu] in CHP report is the last Zhejiang case reported....I believe two cases above occurred in Zhejiang after the 25-Feb-15 ....When updating.. interesting enough they seem to be in chronological order [minor variances] when cross referencing with WHO report by week while interrelating my research...

        #628 - Male, 57, Changshan county, Zhejiang province

        occurred on the 26th Feb
        --


        #630 - Male, 49, hospitalized February 24, test positive February 28, Jinhua, Zhejiang province

        off the top of my head this case was confirmed 1-Mar-15 (onset 24th and hospitalised on the 28th] and age/sex 49M could be inaccurate as it comes from a microblog. Use with caution!

          I agree with Biological100 that FT628 and FT630 are not included in the list of WHO-confirmed cases from Zhejiang Province.
