The service has been launched as China has come under a growing pressure from imported cases having seemingly bought the domestic outbreak under control. It is Jack Ma’s latest effort to combat the virus having already donated masks and test kits to other countries. — SCMP

Chinese citizens stranded overseas by flight cancellations and lockdowns caused by the coronavirus outbreak will have access to advice from medical professionals at hospitals in China under a free consulting service launched by Alibaba Jack Ma.

Ma’s service will be provided to Chinese citizens overseas via Alipay, a payment application owned by Alibaba, which owns the South China Morning Post.
