Three dead of the deadly Chinese virus

Health officials identified the virus, which first appeared in Vuhan in December as a type of coronary.

According to them, it has led to an explosion of viral pneumonia, but that still remains very unclear about it.

Initial findings are that the virus has begun to explode in people who have worked or visited a food market on the outskirts of the city of Vuhan late last month.

According to them, the virus is likely spread from animals to humans, but neither has human transmission been ruled out.

South Korea also reported on its first case Monday, after Thailand and Japan.
