China has reported a sharp rise in the number of people infected with the Wuhan virus. The virus is also spreading beyond China's borders, with South Korea confirming its first case on Jan 20. In Singapore, passengers from on all inbound flights from China will be subjected to temperature screenings at Changi Airport from Jan 22. Individuals with pneumonia and a travel history to Wuhan will also be isolated in hospital as a further precautionary measure. Dr Keith Chappell, a virus expert and senior research fellow at the University of Queensland, shared his thoughts on the outbreak and the measures authorities have taken to control the situation.
