Experts have shown how the deadly coronavirus from China will spread across the globe over the next three months and take over the entire planet.
Scientists from the University of Southampton showed terrifying footage of the spread of the Chinese virus in the next three months. According to Gamebomb.ru, about five million Wuhan residents fled the city before it was completely closed. Based on these facts, as well as on mobile and flight data, only 60 thousand of these 5 million, experts at the University of Southampton have compiled a special map of the distribution of coronavirus throughout the globe. It is noted that thousands of air passengers who left Wuhan departed for 382 cities around the world.
According to the team that created the map of the spread of the virus, most of the cities that Wuhan residents went to are in Asia. However, some of their people also went to major centers in Europe, the USA and Australia. It is noted that most of the potentially infected people in China during the Chinese Lunar New Year went to Thailand, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, the United States, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Hong Kong and Australia. In addition, some went to Africa, Egypt, and some other countries. Based on these data, the authors of the compiled map conclude that the further spread of coronavirus throughout the world will continue, despite attempts to prevent this.
Experts say all cities must be prepared to contain the deadly virus. They add that in cities at high risk for the spread of coronavirus, screenings should be done before April. Molecular virologist Jin Dong-Yan from Hong Kong University’s School of Biomedical Sciences, in turn, said he was thinking about the 5 million people who left Wuhan. “It’s definitely too late. Five million people. This is a big problem. Many of them will not return to Wuhan, but will hang around somewhere else, ”the virologist gloomily concluded.
According to Gamebomb.ru, at the moment, Chinese coronavirus has claimed the lives of 1018 people. Infected over 43 thousand people. Almost 4 thousand were cured of coronavirus.
