Taiwan said on Saturday that six people suffering from fever have so far been placed under medical observation after arriving on the island on flights from the mainland city of Wuhan.

The Centers for Disease Control said enhanced temperature screening had been carried out on more than 600 passengers on several flights from Wuhan since New Year's Eve.

It said the other two people were still being monitored by health officials.    [FULL  STORY]
