"What on earth is going on?" said Chen Yu, his eyes wide with surprise after reading the news, he looked at the Glasses Doctor standing before him, waiting for an explanation.
"This is a breaking news alert from this morning. It says that an outbreak of pneumonia caused by a novel coronavirus has erupted in China. Currently, three confirmed cases have been found in Japan, one in Hokkaido and two in Tokyo. All of them are tourists from China and have been taken to the hospital for isolation," the Glasses Doctor hurriedly explained to Chen Yu.
"Novel coronavirus pneumonia? Similar to SARS and MARS?" Hiromi, who was standing by, heard the Glasses Doctor's words. Although she and Tashiro Nanaori were most concerned about their own business, as a doctor, she felt a genuine concern and fear for coronavirus pneumonia, especially since Tokyo had just encountered an outbreak of MARS the previous year.
