The death toll from a new virus in China has risen to 56 with 1,975 total cases reported, as China's leader called the accelerating spread of the disease a grave situation.

The figures reported Sunday morning cover the previous 24 hours and mark an increase of 15 deaths and 688 cases.The government also reported five cases in Hong Kong, two in Macao and three in Taiwan. Small numbers of cases have been found in Thailand, Japan, South Korea, the U.S., Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Nepal, France and Australia.

Millions of people travelling during the holiday have fueled the spread of the outbreak nationwide and overseas after it began in the city of Wuhan in central China. The vast majority of the infections and all the deaths have been in mainland China, but fresh cases are popping up. The new virus comes from a large family of what are known as coronaviruses, some causing nothing worse than a cold. It causes cold- and flu-like symptoms, including cough and fever, and in more severe cases, shortness of breath. It can worsen to pneumonia, which can be fatal.

"We originally planned to go back to my wife's hometown and bought train tickets to depart this afternoon," said Li Mengbin, who was on a stroll near the closed Forbidden City. "We ended up cancelling. But I'm still happy to celebrate the new year in Beijing, which I hadn't for several years."

Great. I wonder what’s the real numbers are like!?

How about providing ACTUAL FACTS, how is it transmitted, what’s the incubation period, where did it come from, what’s the course of treatment, ages and health of those worse affected...you know, proper journalism?!?!?!?!?

Wakey wakey WHO! And Canada!

All you sheep should Google what influenza death rates are

In just going to leave this here. In total, the CDC estimates that up to 42.9 million people got sick during the 2018-2019 flu season, 647,000 people were hospitalized and 61,200 died.

Why are they still calling the coronavirus case in Toronto presumptive despite lab results? Why do they assure us he was only in contact with family? What about all the other people on the plane? And how did he get home from the airport? Media silence.....

Good luck finding masks. They're being bought up and sent back to China. Have we banned travel to and from China yet or are we gonna wait? How are we getting prepared? Has Canada put a travel ban from China. Would be infected travelers could be roaming the world as we speak. Not to say the rest of North America are doing their part to contain the flu.
