武漢の新型コロナウイルス案件、ProMEDに興味深い記述。
１．最初の犠牲者となったのは６１歳男性。バイヤーとして魚市場の常連。腹部腫瘍の合併症あり。
２．（コロナウイルスだと発表した）記者会見時のあれこれ。
遺伝子分析の結果（sequence)を発表すべきとWHOが要求し世界中の科学者はせっついているが、会見した徐氏からそれは示されなかった。今回の分析には複数のグループがかかわっている。北京の中国CDCがリーダーシップをとっており、そちらのOKがなければ発表できない模様。
中国の官僚制がひとつのバリアとしてはある模様です。しかし、これくらいのことは日本官僚制でもふつうにあるわけで（日本では、稟議や決裁という名のスタンプラリー）仕方ないのでしょう。分析にかかわった複数グループが勝手ばらばらに発表して収拾つかなくなるのも社会不安のもとでしょうし。。。（発表は、スポークスパーソンを決め、その人がコンスタントに同じ調子で・・・とはリスクコミュニケーション教科書のいの一番に書いてある処）

The local health commission reported 1 death on [Sat 11 Jan 2020] amid the recent pneumonia outbreak in central China's Wuhan City.
Among the 41 cases that have been confirmed so far, 2 persons have been discharged from hospital, 7 are in critical condition, and 1 is reported dead.
The virus that caused the outbreak was identified as a new type of coronavirus; SARS, MERS, and bird flu have all been ruled out. No new case has been detected since [Fri 3 Jan 2020].
The commission said that up to now [Sat 11 Jan 2020], there is no evidence of human-to-human transmission, and no medical personnel were found infected.

[ProMED-mail Rapporteur Kunihiko Iizuka submitted a short Reuters report on this fatality (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-health-pneumonia/one-dead-in-china-outbreak-of-previously-unknown-virus-idUSKBN1ZA00D), leading me to search for more information.
In the past 30 minutes there have been several reports of this death on Weibo, a Chinese social media platform. The above report as well as the Weibo reports mention there remain 7 critical patients out of 41 confirmed cases, (presumably eliminating the 19 cases reported to have been negative for the virus (see section [2] below), but adding one more case to the original stated 59 suspected cases in this cluster. It appears as though this fatality is not among the original reported 7 critical cases.
We await more information as it becomes available. - Mod.MPP]

A new coronavirus identified by Chinese scientists is the putative cause of an outbreak of unusual pneumonia in the central city of Wuhan, according to Chinese news reports yesterday [Thu 9 Jan 2020]. In an interview today [Fri 10 Jan 2020] with Science, Xu Jianguo, head of an evaluation committee advising the Chinese government, confirmed that scientists have a complete sequence of the novel virus's genome.
The World Health Organization on [9 Jan 2020] requested sequence data, a spokesperson in Geneva says, and many scientists urge the country to make the sequence public quickly, but the decision is up to the top leadership of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, says Xu, who is director of the Beijing-based State Key Laboratory for Infectious Disease Prevention and Control, part of China CDC. (The center's head, George Gao, did not respond to emails from Science seeking comment.)
Xu says the investigation is being led by China CDC but numerous groups in other government agencies are involved. "Plenty of people are working on the outbreak," he says.
