The ban on travel from China is meant to stop the contagion from spreading in the Philippines as authorities track down other passengers on flights taken by two positive cases in the country.

It was the first death out of more than 130 cases reported in around two dozen countries and regions outside of mainland China.The man who died was a companion of a 38-year-old Chinese woman, also from Wuhan, who was the first and only other person to test positive for the virus in the Philippines.

It said it had sent notices to airlines and shipping companies operating into the Philippines requesting them to screen their passengers before boarding to prevent landing in the country of those who had traveled to China, Hong Kong or Macau. “Even those who came from the United States, and the plane was just a connecting flight from Hong Kong, were barred. Passengers were crying,” a source told the Inquirer.The foreign travelers aired their grievances on social media, complaining about the abrupt enforcement of the directive. But Ed Monreal, Manila International Airport Authority general manager, said, “We are just implementing [the order] given to us.

The WHO on Thursday declared the outbreak a public health emergency of international concern, but said global trade and travel restrictions were not needed. “I wish to emphasize that we are not singling out Chinese nationals. This order covers all travelers from China to the Philippines regardless of nationality,”he said.

The man’s companion, the first reported case of the new virus in the Philippines, has no more symptoms of the infection such as fever and cough, but has not yet been discharged, DOH spokesperson Eric Domingo said.
