* Confirmed cases in China jump to 4,515
* US tells citizens to reconsider travel to China
* WHO director-general visits China to assess
*死亡人数攀升至106
*中国确诊病例跃升至4,515
*美国告诉公民重新考虑前往中国的旅行
*世卫组织总干事访问中国进行评估
中国国家卫生委员会周二表示，死亡人数攀升至106人。大陆确诊病例从周一的2744例激增至4515例。死亡人数中有一百人发生在武汉市所在的湖北省。
整个亚洲和澳大利亚以及美国，法国和加拿大都报告了感染病例。德国确认了第一例。
由于对这种病毒的担忧，全球股市暴跌。亚洲股市周二再次下跌，此前标准普尔500指数（S&P 500 Index）周一跌至近四个月来最高。
中国和全球的公共卫生官员已经采取了积极的行动，以阻止SARS样病毒的传播。尽管其他国家/地区的病例数量有限，但中国官员表示，尽管采取了积极措施限制生活在爆发中心武汉附近城市的数百万人的活动，但该病毒尚未得到控制。
世卫组织总干事特德罗斯·阿达诺姆·格布雷耶苏斯（Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus）表示，他将前往北京与政府会面并评估反应。此前，中国国务院总理李克强周一访问了武汉。
上周，世卫组织拒绝将冠状病毒标记为国际紧急事件，这一称号将使联合国机构能够开始协调政府的应对措施。
随着疫情的爆发，中国将农历新年假期从原定的1月30日延长至2月2日，以减少出行。当局还封锁了在武汉周围聚集着4000万人口的城市，以争夺这种病毒。
美国驻武汉领事馆计划在包机中疏散部分美国人，而法国和日本也表示计划遣返公民。
跨国公司也正在加紧应对，以保护工人。
Facebook公司限制员工到中国的旅行，而日产汽车公司和本田公司等其他公司则将员工从疫情最严重的地区撤离。知情人士说，Facebook在中国的雇员以及最近从该国回国的人被告知在家工作。瑞士信贷集团（Credit Suisse Group SA）和瑞银集团（UBS Group AG）都在告诉银行，如果香港员工刚刚访问了中国内地，他们必须在家工作两个星期。
美国警报
新的美国旅行警报级别3，是美国国务院四项忠告中的第二高。此前，美国曾敦促公民在访问中国时“提高警惕”，同时避免前往武汉附近的任何地区旅行，武汉是该流行病开始的1100万城市。
美国还可能扩大其边界的旅行检查范围，并密切监视110人以阻止该病毒，并对他们进行病原体检测。截至周一上午，在过去一周中确定了头五名患者后，没有新的美国病例。
美国疾病预防控制中心国家免疫和呼吸疾病中心主任南希·梅森尼尔（Nancy Messonnier）说：“目前，这种病毒尚未在社区中传播。”
有证据表明，这种疾病的潜伏期长达两周，而这些感染者开始表现出症状之前，这种焦虑正在加剧。这增加了人们出差旅行并最终感染他人的机会，然后才意识到自己有病。但Messonnier说，到目前为止，还没有明确的证据表明该病毒可以在潜伏期扩散，直到患者出现症状。
她说，新的冠状病毒似乎没有像麻疹这样的高传染性病毒那么传染。她说，这种冠状病毒之所以被冠以冠状形状而得名，通常是通过呼吸道飞沫传播的。
The number of deaths climbed to 106, China’s National Health Commission said on Tuesday. The number of confirmed cases on the mainland soared to 4,515, from 2,744 on Monday. One hundred of the fatalities have occurred in Hubei， the province where the city of Wuhan is located.
Cases of infection have been reported throughout Asia and Australia， as well as in the U.S.， France and Canada. Germany confirmed its first case.

What You Need to Know About China’s Virus Outbreak: QuickTake
Public health officials in China and around the globe have mounted an aggressive attempt to stop the spread of the SARS-like virus. While cases in other countries have been limited， Chinese officials said the virus isn’t yet under control
despite aggressive steps to limit movement for millions of people who live in cities near Wuhan， the city at the epicenter of the outbreak.
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said he’s heading to Beijing to meet with the government and assess the response. That follows a visit on Monday by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang to Wuhan.
Last week， the WHO declined to label the coronavirus an international emergency， a designation that would have allowed the United Nations agency to begin coordinating government responses.
As the outbreak accelerates， China has extended the Lunar New Year holiday to Feb. 2 from the original Jan. 30 date to reduce travel. Authorities have also locked down cities with a combined 40 million people around Wuhan， as they race to contain the virus.
The U.S. consulate in Wuhan plans to evacuate some Americans in a charter flight， while France and Japan have also said they plan to repatriate citizens.
Global corporations are also stepping up their response in an effort to protect workers.
Facebook Inc. is restricting employee travel to China， while others including Nissan Motor Co. and Honda are evacuating workers from areas hardest hit by the outbreak. Facebook employees based in China， and those who recently returned from trips to the country， are being told to work from home， said people familiar with the matter. Credit Suisse Group SA and UBS Group AG are among banks telling Hong Kong staff to work from home for two weeks if they’ve just visited mainland China.
U.S. Alert
The new U.S. travel alert， Level 3, is the second highest of four State Department advisories. Previously， the U.S. had urged citizens to “exercise increased caution” when visiting China， while avoiding any travel to the area near Wuhan， the city of 11 million where the epidemic started.
The U.S. may also expand travel screening at its borders and is closely monitoring 110 people to stop the virus， testing them for presence of the pathogen. As of Monday morning， there have been no new U.S. cases after the first five patients were identified in the past week.
“At this time in the U.S.， this virus is not spreading in the community，” said Nancy Messonnier， the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases.
Anxiety is growing amid evidence that the disease has an incubation period of as long as two weeks before those infected start to show symptoms. That raises the possibility that people could travel and eventually infect others before realizing they have the illness. But Messonnier said that so far there has been no clear evidence that the virus can spread during the incubation period before patients have symptoms.
The new coronavirus appears to be less contagious than highly infectious viruses like the measles， she said. Coronaviruses like this one， so named because of their crown-like shape， are generally transmitted by respiratory droplets， she said.
