A Chinese woman from Wuhan took medication to hide certain undetermined virus symptoms from French Border Police, and has since been touring Paris and Lyon, eating in restaurants and boasting about it on social media. The Chinese embassy in Paris wants to talk to her.

At least two cases of the virus now confirmed in France and more are expected. If connected, she is in a ton of trouble.

I doubt there is any connection: both newly confirmed infected people have recently been in China, (at least) one of them in Wuhan.
