Japanese officials have confirmed its first case of the new coronavirus in the country as epidemic fears grow.<\/p>\n

A government official said today that a Japanese man in his 30s, who travelled to Wuhan in eastern China, tested positive for the virus.<\/p>\n

The SARS-like virus has struck down dozens in China since the outbreak was first recorded in December.<\/p>\n

It is believed an outbreak of pneumonia caused the fresh coronavirus strain.<\/p>\n

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has warned the virus could spread further and has told hospitals across the world to be alert.<\/p>\n

Maria Van Kerkhove, acting head of the WHO\u2019s emerging diseases unit, said: \u201cFrom the information that we have it is possible that there is limited human-to-human transmission, potentially among families, but it is very clear right now that we have no sustained human-to-human transmission.<\/p>\n

She added: “It is still early days, we don’t have a clear clinical picture.”<\/p>\n

Coronaviruses are infections that can cause colds to more-serious illnesses like SARS.<\/p>\n

In all, 41 cases of pneumonia have been reported in the central Chinese city of Wuhan, which preliminary lab tests cited by state media showed could be from a new type of coronavirus.<\/p>\n

One of the patients has died, a 61-year-old man who had bought goods from a wholesale seafood market in Wuhan.<\/p>\n
