Prior to the lockdown of the CCP virus’s epicenter in Wuhan, there were approximately 5,000,000 people who reportedly left the city. Where did they go? Using a big data analysis method, a research team from the University of Southampton studied the travel patterns of nearly 5,000,000 people traveling abroad from Wuhan before it was locked down.

On March 23, state-run media reported that Italy’s first two confirmed cases of infection were from a Chinese couple. They both recovered after being hospitalized for 49 days. The wife, Hu Yamin, is a faculty member of Central China Normal University, which is located in Wuhan. They left Wuhan on January 22—a day before the city was locked down. The couple’s symptoms began to manifest when they were already in Italy. These findings indirectly acknowledge that it was the Chinese couple who brought the epidemic to Italy.
