Coronavirus infects U.S. soldier in South Korea as pandemic fears fuel market selloff by DavidStanway joshjonsmith Follow our live blog for the latest updates on coronavirus:
SHANGHAI/SEOUL - China and South Korea reported 500 new coronavirus cases on Wednesday, including the first U.S. soldier to be infected, as the United States warned of an inevitable pandemic and an outbreak in northern Italy spread to several European countries.
Dr. Anne Schuchat, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention principal deputy director, said that while the immediate risk in the United States was low, the current global situation suggested a pandemic was likely. Of the new cases, 134 were from Daegu city, where the virus is believed to have been passed among members of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Korea Centers for Disease Control & Prevention said.
There have been about three dozen deaths outside China, including 11 in Italy, according to a Reuters tally. A similar story was unfolding at the four-star H10 Costa Adeje Palace hotel in Tenerife on the Canary Islands, which was locked down on Tuesday after an Italian doctor and his wife were found to be infected. Spain also reported its first three cases of the disease on the mainland.
