spreading in China and beyond is contagious during its incubation period, before symptoms appear.
"Understanding the time when infected patients may transmit the virus to others is critical for control efforts," WHO said. WHO last week stopped short of declaring the outbreak a public health emergency of international concern - a rare designation used only for the worst outbreaks that would trigger more concerted global action.But the world body admitted Monday it had made an error in its risk assessment for the deadly virus in several reports last week, acknowledging the global risk was"high" rather than"moderate".
As with SARS and another deadly coronavirus known as Middle-East Respiratory Syndrome, or MERS, WHO suggested that the new virus could be spreading through droplets, for instance when people sneeze or cough, or through direct contact with infected people or with objects they have touched.
