France has now tracked down a case of COVID in a guy who was sick on December 27. That man had no travel history.
So by December 27, the virus had travelled from China to Paris, and had infected a Paris resident - who had become sick enough to go to a hospital and have a test for the 'flu.
This all happened 4 days before the WHO was 1st notified by China.
Does make you wonder how many cases we imported into Australia during December and January.
