NSTworld: The three evacuees raise the number of cases in Japan so far to 11, including two people who appear to have contracted the virus without travelling to China.
The three people arrived in Japan yesterday, on the first flight to evacuate Japanese citizens from the Chinese city of Wuhan, the epicentre of a deadly outbreak that has killed 170 people and injected thousands.
“In addition to the eight cases, among the people who returned from Wuhan yesterday, infection has been confirmed in one person with symptoms and two other people who have no symptoms,” Health Minister Katsunobu Kato told parliament today. The new cases come after authorities on Wednesday confirmed a second instance in which a person tested positive for the virus without having travelled to Japan.
