Coronavirus: new UK and Mallorcan cases linked to French ski resort cluster Man who contracted virus in Singapore visited group and flew back to UK on easyJet flight Alexandra Topping and Nadeem Badshah Mon 10 Feb 2020 02.02 ESTFirst published on Sun 9 Feb 2020 06.54 EST Shares 194 The coronavirus patient was taken to a specialist centre at the Royal Free, Prof Chris Whitty said. Photograph: Andy Rain/EPA New coronavirus cases detected in the UK and Mallorca are linked to a cluster in a ski resort in France, health officials have confirmed. On Sunday the UK’s chief medical officer, Prof Chris Whitty, said one of the new cases – the fourth in England – was a known contact of a previously confirmed UK case. He also said the virus was passed on in France. The latest patient is being treated at the Royal Free hospital in London. The new case in England is linked to a cluster of cases affecting five Britons, including a nine-year-old child, who are in hospital in France. Another six UK nationals are being kept under observation in French hospitals. Jerome Salomon, a French senior health official, said in a televised statement: “We learned that there were two other cases linked to this cluster, two adults – one who was diagnosed in the United Kingdom and the other who was diagnosed in Mallorca – linked to a stay in the apartment in Les Contamines-Montjoie.” The group had been staying in two apartments in a ski chalet in the Alpine resort area near Mont Blanc when they were visited by a British man on 24 January who had attended a business conference in Singapore, where he is believed to have contracted the virus. The event at the Grand Hyatt hotel in Singapore was hosted by Servomex, a UK gas analysis company, the Singapore newspaper Lianhe Wanbao reported. The British national, reported to be a middle-aged man from Brighton, was found to have the virus when he returned to the UK at the end of last month. He returned to London Gatwick Airport from Geneva on 28 January on an easyJet flight. In a statement, easyJet said Public Health England is contacting all passengers who were seated in the vicinity of the customer on flight EZS8481 from Geneva to Gatwick on 28 January to provide guidance in line with procedures. The airline added: “easyJet has been notified by the public health authority that a customer who had recently travelled on one of its flights has since been diagnosed with the Coronavirus. “As the customer was not experiencing any symptoms, the risk to others on board the flight is very low. “We remain in contact with the public health authorities and are following their guidance. The health and wellbeing of our passengers and crew is the airline’s highest priority. “All of the crew who operated have been advised to monitor themselves for a 14 day period since the flight in line with Public Health England advice. Note this happened 12 days ago and none are displaying any symptoms.” The man is thought to be the first UK national to contract the disease and was transferred to St Thomas’ hospital in London, where there is an infectious diseases unit, last Thursday. Whitty said experts at Public Health England continue to work hard tracing patient contacts from the UK cases. He said of the case that emerged on Sunday: “They successfully identified this individual and ensured the appropriate support was provided. The patient has been transferred to a specialist NHS centre at the Royal Free hospital, and we are now using robust infection control measures to prevent any possible further spread of the virus. While the total number of cases in the UK stands at four, the government in the Balearic Islands confirmed a British man had tested positive for coronavirus in Mallorca. The man’s wife and two daughters tested negative and were not showing any signs of having the virus. The family had been in France and had returned to Mallorca on 29 January and the father started to show light symptoms 24 hours later. Fernando Simon, director of the centre of coordination of health emergencies at at the Spanish health ministry, said the man was currently “in good health” but was being kept in isolation and authorities were drawing up a list of everyone he may have come into contact with in Mallorca. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/feb/09/fourth-person-in-uk-tests-positive-for-coronavirus

There are 66 newly confirmed coronavirus cases aboard the Diamond Princess ship docked in Yokohama, Japan, the ship’s captain has announced. That brings the total number of cases on the ship to 136, up from 70 confirmed cases on Sunday.

Sixty more people confirmed with coronavirus on cruise ship in Japan - media Rocky Swift 2 MIN READ TOKYO (Reuters) - Testing aboard the Diamond Princess cruise ship in Japan has revealed 60 more confirmed cases of coronavirus, media said on Monday, as quarantined passengers took to social media to warn of depression setting in over their confinement. Monday’s figure takes to 130 the number of infections on the ship docked in Yokohama, domestic broadcasters TBS and NHK said, citing Japanese health ministry sources. The health ministry’s communication office had no information on the report when contacted by Reuters. The Diamond Princess was placed in quarantine for two weeks upon arriving in Yokohama, south of Tokyo, on Feb. 3, after a man who disembarked in Hong Kong was diagnosed with the virus. About 3,700 people are aboard the ship, which usually has a crew of 1,100 and a passenger capacity of 2,670. Passengers have been allowed on decks in shifts to get fresh air and encouraged to regularly take their temperature. ADVERTISEMENT “Lots of the passengers now are getting a bit of cabin fever,” British passenger David Able said in a video posted on Facebook. “Depression is starting to set in.” Another said he hoped assurances about the effectiveness of quarantine and ventilation on board would prove true. “I will get nervous if we pass 200,” said the 43-year-old Hong Kong resident quarantined on the boat with his wife, child and several others of his family. “Hoping best for those taken to hospital. At least two report back to us on Facebook that they are symptom free,” said the man, who declined to be identified. A passenger with the Twitter handle daxa_tw posted an audio clip of the captain announcing the discovery of 66 new cases. Japan’s health ministry is separating infection counts on the ship and evacuee flights from China from Japan’s official tally. Domestic cases stand at 21. The disease has killed 908 people, chiefly in mainland China, and infected more than 40,000.
