The number of cases of the novel coronavirus in the Czech Republic has risen over 5,000, Reuters reported.

The Health Ministry on Wednesday reported 195 new cases the previous day, a 4.0 per cent daily rise to bring the total to 5,017, a figure that was updated to stand at 5,033 by 8:25am (local time).

The ministry has reported 91 deaths as of Wednesday morning and 181 recovered patients.

The country was among the first in Europe to declare a state of emergency in March - which parliament agreed on Tuesday to extend to April 30 - and has been swift to put in place drastic measures including closing schools, most shops and restaurants, and restricting people's movement.

The Vietnamese community in the Czech Republic was recognised as an ethnic minority group in the East European country in 2013, now numbering about 70,000.
