  • Description: The World Health Organization has declared the current novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreak to be a public health emergency of international concern, as latest figures show that nearly 10 000 people have been infected and that over 200 have died. The mission should “review and support efforts to investigate the animal source of the outbreak, the clinical spectrum of the disease and its severity, the extent of human to human transmission in the community and in healthcare facilities, and efforts to control the outbreak,” the emergency committee said. [...]around 60 key research organisations and journals, including The BMJ, have signed a joint statement pledging to “rapidly and openly” share research data and findings relevant to the outbreak, to “inform the public health response and help save lives.”
