In a separate statement, the Wuhan Municipal Health Commission said at least 15 medical workers in Wuhan have also been infected with the virus, with one in a critical condition.

Nine deaths na... And the patogen is mutating, which will make it harder for existing antibiotics to deal with it.

The death toll has risen to nine with 440 confirmed cases, they said.
A National Health Commission official admitted that the country was now at the "most critical stage" of prevention and control.
"Though the transmission route of the virus is yet to be fully understood, there is a possibility of virus mutation and a risk of further spread of the epidemic," National Health Commission vice-minister Li Bin said in a news conference on Wednesday.
Travel ban na muna mga chinese, yun mga uuwi for new year huwag na muna pabalikin or i-quarantine sila sa isang Island

China’s mystery coronavirus: everything you need to know from symptoms to treatment
China’s mystery new coronavirus has so far infected at least 440 people and killed nine, with the World Health Organization set to meet to determine whether the outbreak should be categorised as an international health emergency.
While the vast bulk of cases have been confined to China, cases in this fast-moving outbreak have now been found in the United States, Thailand, South Korea, Taiwan, Macau, Japan and the Philippines.
How are coronaviruses transmitted?
Like other coronaviruses – such as the common cold – the virus is spread via droplets when a person coughs or sneezes.
It can also be spread when someone touches a contaminated surface such as a door handle.
Hospitals are also a key place for viruses to spread. When patients arrive in hospital with vague respiratory symptoms health workers may not know they need to take special precautions such as wearing masks. Other patients may also be at risk.
The outbreak is thought to have originated in a seafood market in Wuhan which also traded in other animals such as marmots and bats.
But what animal the disease originally came from is still unknown, as is how easily the disease spreads between people. WHO and the Chinese authorities initially said there was “limited” human-to-human transmission but the pace of the outbreak would suggest that it spreads more easily than first thought.
