I think all the action is in Guangzhou at the moment (although I think Hong Kong is screening 30 pneumonia cases who have returned from Guangzhou - although I'm not sure that 30 is an unusually high number), but it sounds like the biggest problem is screening delays. I think that over the holidays there are 1.89 BILLION trips in China and I heard that at one train station the line for tickets was 3 MILES long. They are also recommending arriving 6 HOURS prior to departure due to screening delays. I suspect there will soon be more suspect cases, but you are probably OK for the next few days.
