[ms_dropcap color=”#dd3333″ boxed=”yes” boxed_radius=”8″ class=”” id=””]A[/ms_dropcap]ll the latest breaking news on coronavirus. Browse Shangahai Traveler’s complete collection of articles and commentary on coronavirus. A new Chinese coronavirus, a cousin of the SARS virus, has infected hundreds since the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December. Scientist Leo Poon, who first decoded the virus, thinks it likely started in an animal and spread to humans. (Source: CNN)

“What we know is it causes pneumonia and then doesn’t respond to antibiotic treatment, which is not surprising, but then in terms of mortality, SARS kills 10% of the individuals,” Poon, a virologist at the School of Public Health at The University of Hong Kong, said.
It’s not clear how deadly the Wuhan coronavirus will be, but fatality rates are currently lower than both MERS and SARS. Experts stress that it will change as the outbreak develops.

14 days

The United States’ CDC estimates the incubation period for 2019-nCoV to be between 2 and 14 days. This means that symptoms of the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) may appear in as few as 2 days or as long as 14, during which the virus is contagious but the patient does not display any symptom (asymptomatic transmission).
