Two additional novel coronavirus cases have been reported in Japan, bringing the case total in the country to six, according to a Japan Times report.
One of the new cases reported Tuesday is a bus driver in his 60s who drove two groups of Chinese tourists visiting Japan from Wuhan earlier this month. He had no recent travel to China, the report notes.
This comes as the Japanese government moves to evacuate its nationals from Wuhan, China.
