The virus broke out in Wuhan, and is suspected to have spread from the city’s seafood market. Eight cases of human-to-human infection were reported in the United States, Germany, Japan, Vietnam and Germany.

Cases have now been confirmed in Thailand, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Australia, Malaysia, Macao, the United States, France, Germany, South Korea, Canada, Cambodia, Vietnam, Nepal, Sri Lanka and the United Arab Emirates.

The city was sealed, and restrictions on transportation are in place. The United States and Japan began evacuating their citizens. Japan has confirmed that three of Wuhan’s returned passengers have tested the virus positively.

The EU citizens will be evacuated, with two scheduled flights. Australia, Canada, the Philippines and Malaysia have also all announced that their people will be evacuated from Wuhan.
