LONDON (Reuters) – China’s Huawei said on Thursday the coronavirus outbreak would not affect the supply of 5G telecoms equipment to its customers after its factories resumed production.
Yang Chaobin, Huawei’s president of the 5G product line, said 5G equipment was currently manufactured in Huawei’s own factories.
