China Suddenly Increases Death Toll By Over 60% As Virus Jumps To Europe

SummaryHere's a glimpse of new virus-related developments that occurred overnight.

China announces another 15 deaths in Hubei province

Total number of confirmed cases now 1,000+, 41 dead.

China restricts travel for 46+ million people across 16 cities as the death toll surges.

AFP reports that the virus has jumped to Europe, with three confirmed cases now in France.

Two deaths have been reported outside Wuhan.

Some residents displaying symptoms are being turned away from hospitals.

Hospitals in Wuhan make urgent pleas for help and supplies.

Beijing orders PLA medics to assist in Wuhan treating patients

UK and US governments tell citizens to avoid outbreak zones.

63 suspected cases in US, Senator says 3 confirmed, with two reported so far in Illinois and California, and two suspected in Minnesota



Update (1700ET): All day we've been watching disturbing videos of hospital hallways littered with what appear to be dead bodies, yet the death toll from the Wuhan coronavirus hasn't budged from 26 since Beijing reported the first two deaths outside Hubei yesterday.

Now we know why: As we suspected, the virus has been claiming more victims. But the local authorities, who promised 'transparency' in everything virus-related, apparently felt the need to wait until 4 am local time to drop this massive bomb: Another 15 people have died in Hubei as hospitals struggle with severe shortages of nearly everything, including doctors and nurses. That brings the total number of casualties to 41. In addition, another 180 cases have been discovered in Hubei, bringing the total number of cases over 1,000.
