The former commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Agency warned on Tuesday that Japan is facing a large outbreak of the new coronavirus.
Japan reported 88 new cases—including 65 patients who weren’t showing symptoms—from the cruise ship quarantined in Yokohama earlier Tuesday, bringing the total number of cases from the ship to 542. Officials have also confirmed at least 74 other cases domestically, mostly among patients who haven’t been to China recently.
