⚠️ BREAKING: World Health Organization ( @WHO ) declares #coronavirus #2019nCoV a PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY 🚨

Interim #SITREP
With 12,167 suspected cases, the WHO is facing some difficult decisions. As of this moment (15:00 ET) there are no trade restrictions in place. However, Russia has now closed border with China, as have Mongolia and North Korea.
CDC in Atlanta has confirmed the first person-to-person #coronavirus transmission in the United States.

If you have been following my threads, you may recall one of the experts I cited a few days ago saying “all it takes is one case to slip through the cracks.”
