BREAKING: Coronavirus cases rise to more than 800 worldwide as China confirms death toll has risen to 25.
U.S. health officials began screening passengers flying from China at major international airports this weekend, and confirmed the country's first case on Tuesday. A Washington state man is quarantined with the virus in a hospital outside of Seattle after flying back from Wuhan, U.S. health authorities said.
British TV network BBC News reported Thursday that four people in Scotland are being tested for the virus. "Make no mistake, this is an emergency in China. But it has not yet become a global health emergency. It may yet become one," Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told reporters on a conference call following a second emergency meeting on the disease on Thursday. The emergency committee members were "very divided," a WHO official said, coming to a split vote for a second time.
WHO is not recommending any broader restrictions on travel or trade at this time. Physicians recommended basic hygiene, including washing hands with soap and water and avoiding touching eyes, nose or mouth.
