Coronavirus quarantine precautions around the world

The country confirmed its first case of human-to-human transmission of the virus last week, after a taxi driver was apparently infected by a traveller.. On Sunday, a 44-year-old Chinese man visiting the Philippines became the first person to die from the new coronavirus outside China.. South Korea has recorded 16 cases, including two that appear to involve people who have not travelled to China: a 42-year-old woman who had recently returned to South Korea from Thailand, and a 48-year-old. About 700 South Koreans evacuated from Wuhan in recent days have been taken to two quarantine centres about 80km south of Seoul, where they will be kept in isolation for at least two weeks.. The self-governing island has reported 10 cases of the virus and said it would deny entry to all foreign nationals who had been to China during the past 14 days.. India has had three reported cases of coronavirus, all in Kerala, which has declared a "state calamity".. The Indian government has revised the travel advisory asking the public to refrain from traveling to China and ordered that anyone who has travelled to China since 15 January 2020 should report themselves and be put in quarantine..
