Day 31 (January 30, 2020) - Huwan virus already infects more Chinese than SARS
The new Coronavirus has already infected more people in China than the comparable SARS virus did between November 2002 and July 2003. Then, in South China and Hong Kong, 7082 people became infected, of which 648 did not survive the SARS virus. The new coronavirus has already officially infected 7,711 people in China, of which 170 have died.
A renowned Chinese epidemiologist mentioned on Thursday via the Xinhua news agency that it will take at least another three months before there is a vaccine against the new corona virus that has been proven to work.
About 6,000 passengers from a cruise ship were stuck on the boat in Civitavecchia (Italy) due to two possibly infected Chinese passengers. In the course of the afternoon a message was sent out via the Italian media that no contamination was found.
