Wuhan is CENTRAL to China’s transportation system, with major railways feeding millions of people to all of China’s major cities

Though it was largely unknown to most Americans prior to the new year, the city of Wuhan in China, where the current coronavirus outbreak is said to have originated, is actually a major transportation hub with railway “spokes” that branch out from the city in nearly every direction.

These connecting arteries are how five million people thus far have been able to leave Wuhan amid this ongoing crisis. Wuhan also has a major airport, which is how infected travelers were able to reach Seattle, New York and other major cities both here in the United States and around the world.

Roughly nine million people still remain in Wuhan, and of these about 2,700 hundred are reportedly under observation by authorities for potential infection. As of Sunday, Wuhan had 533 confirmed cases of coronavirus, and there are believed to be another 500 or so likely cases, according to authorities.

“With a population of 11 million, Wuhan is larger than London or New York,” reports explain. “Beijing confirmed the virus had claimed 26 lives in China on January 22. That number had jumped to 80 in just five days by which time the virus had spread around the world.”

Chinese State Council extends Lunar New Year to February 2 amid coronavirus crisis

Despite efforts to contain the virus with a mandatory lockdown, officials in Wuhan have utterly failed to impede its spread not only to other areas of China but also to other countries, including the U.S.

There are multiple confirmed cases of coronavirus in Beijing, for instance, as well as nearly half a dozen-and-growing here in America. Because the spread of the virus is showing no signs of slowing down, the Chinese State Council has extended the Lunar New Year holiday to February 2.

Here in the U.S., the latest confirmed case of coronavirus has been identified in Arizona, where a “member” of Arizona State University – presumably a student – was diagnosed after having traveled to Wuhan over the holidays.

As of this writing, there are at least 44,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus all around the world, with no end in sight.

University of Hong Kong academics on Monday estimated that the number of patients in Wuhan had reached 43,590 by Saturday, including those in the incubation stage of the virus, which causes pneumonia,” the latest reports indicate.

“Lead researcher and dean of HKU’s faculty of medicine Gabriel Leung said his team estimated there were 25,630 patients showing symptoms in Wuhan and that the number would double in 6.2 days, according to mathematical modelling based on infection figures worldwide as of Saturday.”

It’s important to note that coronavirus is capable of transmission even during its incubation period when no symptoms are present. According to Ma Xiaowei, the minister in charge of China’s National Health Commission (NHC), this incubation period can last anywhere from one to 14 days.

“Some patients have normal temperatures and there are many milder cases,” Xiaowei is quoted as saying. “There are hidden carriers. There are signs showing the virus is becoming more transmissible. These walking ‘contagious agents’ (hidden carriers) make controlling the outbreak a lot more difficult.”
