    China has confirmed the first examples of the deadly Wuhan Coronavirus spreading from human to human, with medical workers currently among the infected.

    Early on Tuesday officials confirmed a fourth death linked to the virus with more than 200 cases of the disease confirmed so far and instances reported in Japan, Thailand and South Korea.

    The 89-year-old man, who had some underlying health problems, developed symptoms on 13 January and was admitted to hospital on 18 January. He died the following day, the Wuhan municipal health commission said.

    Believed to have originated in a seafood market in Wuhan, central China, the illness potentially marks the seventh coronavirus known to science that can infect humans – a grouping that includes SARS and MERS.

    The head of a Chinese government expert team, Zhong Nanshan, said two people in Guangdong province in southern China caught the disease from family members, according to state-controlled English language newspaper China Daily.

    It's a new type of Corona virus. Naturally antibiotics will not work. Initially it was thought that it transfers from animals to humans. Now we know that human to human transfer is possible.

    This happens when someone comes into contact with the infected person's secretions.
    Depending on how virulent the virus is, a cough, sneeze or handshake could cause exposure. The virus can also be transmitted by touching something an infected person has touched and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes.

    There is no treatment. The virus will go away after the body immmune system works against it. No vaccines available too. During pregnancy things can be serious.
