China steps up support as US and Europe struggle to contain COVID-19
A woman wearing a protective mask is seen past a portrait of Chinese President Xi Jinping on a street in Shanghai as the country works to contain the coronavirus pandemic.
As the US and Europe struggle to contain the coronavirus outbreak, China is sending aid and medical supplies around the world. And, over 70 million displaced people around the world are stuck in overcrowded refugee camps. The coronavirus outbreak is putting a strain on already poor living conditions. Also, archaeologists have discovered the remains of 3,400-year-old ball court in the mountains of Oaxaca in Mexico. The discovery may shed light on how Mesoamerican societies developed.
