151 people who came into contact with the victim are under observation to prevent the spread of the deadly virus
At least 30 people are dead and 35 are missing in central China, state media reported on Thursday, following days of torrential rain that lashed the country earlier this week.
The downpours were triggered by Typhoon Gaemi, which moved on from the Philippines and Taiwan to make landfall in eastern China a week ago, with hilly, landlocked Hunan province hit particularly hard.
More than 11,000 people had been evacuated from the city of Zixing after some areas endured record rainfall of 645 millimetres in just 24 hours, state news agency Xinhua reported on Tuesday.
Many roads connecting townships in the Zixing area were temporarily cut off by the extreme weather, which also affected the power supply and communications infrastructure.
On Thursday, state broadcaster CCTV said that "the roads, electricity and communications in eight towns in Zixing city that were most severely affected by Typhoon Gaemi have basically opened".
"Initial findings show that there have been 30 deaths and 35 are missing," the report said, adding that search and rescue efforts were still ongoing.
On Tuesday Xinhua said four people had been killed and three people were missing in Zixing.
Three people were killed in Hunan's Yongxing county, Xinhua said Tuesday, while a landslide on Sunday killed 15 people elsewhere in the province.
