  • As severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections (causing coronavirus disease 2019 [Covid-19]) spread globally, uncertainty surrounds estimates of the true number of infected persons, which is crucial to determining the severity of infection and the incidence of mild or asymptomatic cases and their possible transmission. Modeling estimates suggest that in Wuhan, China, the city with the most Covid-19 cases, there are substantially more cases than were officially reported, because milder cases may not have been captured in hospital-based surveillance. Data on travelers returning from areas with cases of Covid-19 could be useful in estimating its incidence.

    • Evidence of SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Returning Travelers from Wuhan, China February 18, 2020 DOI: 10.1056/NEJMc2001899 As the number of cases of infection with the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has continued to increase, many countries have established restrictions regarding travelers who have recently visited China.1 With lockdown measures imposed in Hubei Province, China,2 and a public health emergency of international concern declared by the World Health Organization,3 foreign nationals have sought to return to their home countries from China, and public health authorities are racing to contain the spread of Covid-19 (the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection) around the world. This process is complicated by epidemiologic uncertainty regarding possible transmission of the virus by asymptomatically or subclinically symptomatic infected persons. It is unclear whether persons who show no signs or symptoms of respiratory infection shed SARS-CoV-2. In this context, a group of predominantly German nationals who had stayed in Hubei Province was evacuated to Frankfurt, Germany, on February 1, 2020. They were to be transferred to Germersheim, Germany, and quarantined for 14 days, since this period is thought to be the upper limit of the incubation period of SARS-CoV-2. Screening for symptoms and clinical signs of infection was performed before their departure from China. A total of 126 travelers were allowed to board an aircraft operated by the German air force (Figure 1).

    • Since December 2019, an outbreak of infection with the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has developed in Wuhan, China, and has spread to several countries, typically by travelers returning from China.1,2 Of the 3 million Taiwanese persons who work in China, 2000 work in Wuhan, so the risk of imported SARS-CoV-2 infection to Taiwan from China is high. As of January 29, there were 7 confirmed imported cases of infection with SARS-CoV-2 to Taiwan. We identified a case of locally transmitted infection in Taiwan from a wife to her husband.
