PARIS (May 8): France has identified its first case of a new strain of
coronavirus emerging from the Middle East in a person recently
returned from a stay in the United Arab Emirates, the Health Ministry
said on Wednesday.
The ministry said it had opened an investigation into what it said was the
first and only confirmed case of the new virus in France. The patient had
been placed in isolation.
Worldwide, there have been 30 laboratory-confirmed infections with the
virus, including 18 deaths, since it came to scientists' attention in
September, according to the World Health Organization. (Reporting by
