Iran's deputy health minister and a MP have both tested positive for the new coronavirus, as it struggles to contain an outbreak that has killed 15 people in the country.
The country is one of three hot-spots outside China causing concern that the virus could be becoming a pandemic.
Iran has reported 95 cases, but the actual number is thought to be higher.
The World Health Organization has said the sudden increase in cases in the country is "deeply concerning".
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says they are concerned that Iran may have concealed "vital details" about its outbreak and urged all nations to "tell the truth about the coronavirus".
