Health authorities in China confirmed nearly 140 new cases of a new Sars-like virus on Monday morning, which has killed three people so far.
However, some of the patients have not had exposure to the animal markets, "suggesting that some limited person-to-person spread is occurring," the CDC said Friday.
However, as symptoms from the new Wuhan coronavirus infection are similar to that of other respiratory conditions, there will be "a lot" of travelers who would be wrongly picked up alongside, Phelan said. "Human-to-human transmission will be tipping point, and mass movements in China during CNY may be an unwelcomed accelerant," said Vishnu Varathan, Asia head of economics and strategy at Mizuho Bank.
