More than 600 people have been sickened by the coronavirus, mostly in China.
Health officials worldwide are working to contain a coronavirus that has spread to several countries in a matter of days.
This map will be updated when more information is available. As of Jan. 22, coronavirus cases were confirmed in China, Thailand, Taiwan, Japan and the United States.
More than 540 people have been sickened and 17 have died since the start of the month, according to an NBC News analysis of data collected from China's National Health Commission, province and city health departments, China Central Television, and the People's Daily. China Central Television is a government-run station and People’s Daily is Communist Party-run.

The Chinese government, which is looking to avoid a repeat of the 2003 SARS outbreak, has warned officials not to cover up the spread of the virus. The South China Morning Post reported Tuesday that Beijing said anyone who withheld information would be “the sinner of a millennium to the party and the people” and would be “nailed on the pillar of shame for eternity.”

Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

#ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease. Flight is most often the bare minimum of what we expect from heroes and villains who can perform any feat limited only by the human imagination. It’s not simply special effects that permit our belief, but rather an overall acceptance that these costume-clad characters are a defining part of our culture, modern myths at their best and populist cinematic staples akin to the 20th century western at their lowest form.
