The World Health Organization (WHO) declared on 30 January,
2020, that the outbreak of 2019 nCoV (novel coronavirus) is a
"Public Health Emergency of International Concern." This
is, in part, an acknowledgement of the geographic spread of the
virus and the need for intensified support for preparation and
response, especially in vulnerable countries and regions. Further
information is available in the
WHO statement. On 31 January, 2020, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States also declared a public health emergency for the U.S.
