Virus Outbreak: Officials elaborate on CECC warning


Japan yesterday said that 64 people on the Diamond Princess have tested positive for the 2019 novel coronavirus. The ship was put under 14-day quarantine in Yokohama, Japan, after a man who disembarked in Hong Kong tested positive for the disease. The warning message included a link to a map with more than 40 locations that the passengers visited between 6am and 5:30pm that day. The risk of infection when wearing a mask or in an open environment is very low, so people should not be too worried, Chou said. Thirty-eight of the 1,500 passengers were denied entry after they were found to have fevers, the CECC said.
