Spain confirms 2nd virus case; UK plane brings 200 evacuees
Spain confirmed its second case of the new virus from China, and a plane evacuating more than 200 people from the Chinese city at the center of the epidemic landed Sunday in Britain.
The coronavirus case was detected in Mallorca, a popular vacation island in the Mediterranean Sea, Spain's National Microbiology Center said. A British man who lives on the island contracted the virus at the end of January at a French ski resort where he came into contact with an infected person, according to Fernando Simón, head of Spain's Coordination Center for Health Alerts and Emergencies.
