The United States and Japan flew citizens out of Wuhan, the Chinese city at the epicenter of a new virus outbreak, as the death toll rose above 130
BEIJING/SHANGHAI - The United States and Japan flew citizens out of the Chinese city at the epicenter of a new virus outbreak on Wednesday, as the death toll rose sharply to 132 and the first case appeared in the Middle East.
“I feel really relieved,” Aoyama, an employee of Nippon Steel who was wearing a mask, told reporters at the airport in the Japanese capital. Sectors from mining to luxury goods have been shaken by concerns about the possibility of a worst-case pandemic. A U.S. government official who declined to be identified told Reuters a U.S. charter plane had left Wuhan. It had 220 people aboard, a U.S. diplomatic source added, with 50 diplomats and contractors among them.
