The potential spread of the #coronavirus to countries with weaker health systems is one of our biggest concerns. @WHO thanks @UNCERF for releasing $15 million to help these countries battle the spread of the virus. bit.ly/2IbEWDo

Both Chinese & external expert groups are trying to identify the animal source of 2019-nCoV. Identifying it would help to ensure that there will be no further similar outbreaks & will also help to understand the initial spread of #COVID19 in the Wuhan area, 🇨🇳
