J'ai l'impression que Air France et autres
transporteurs et autorit�s sanitaires sont bien l�g�rs/
Mon n�pouse a vu hier un patient asympto rentrant
de Hano� il y a deux jours. Pas d'info au d�part ni dans l'avion ni � Roissy
!
Et ce genre d'�v�nement �tait encore relat� ce
soir aux infos de la 2.
D'autre part les premiers cas contract�s � Pekin
et retourn�s � Hong Kong ont �t� rapport� (avec les r�serves que l'on doit aux
infos g�n�rales) par les media de hong kong
Ca peut se lire en anglais l�.
