A second person has died in China from a mysterious Sars-linked virus that has stricken dozens and appeared in two other Asian countries, with a new case reported in Thailand on Friday.
Local authorities said a 69-year-old man died on Wednesday in Wuhan, the central Chinese city believed to be the epicentre of an outbreak of a coronavirus from the same family as the deadly Sars pathogen. No human-to-human transmission has been confirmed so far, but Wuhan's health commission has said the possibility "cannot be excluded".
The enigmatic illness has caused alarm because of its connection to Sars (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome), which killed nearly 650 people across mainland China and Hong Kong in 2002-2003.
