I have mixed feelings about this. I feel like the Gov are more likely to have tight lips on the situation to avoid mass hysteria.

On another note:

According to Vancouver Sun:
Quote:
Three airports in Canada, including Vancouver’s, have added messaging to arrivals screens reminding travellers from Wuhan to tell a border service officer if they have flu-like symptoms.

A health question was also added to electronic kiosks, and those who have visited Wuhan will be subject to closer screening by border-services officers. Those with flu-like symptoms will be referred to a quarantine officer and then taken to Richmond Hospital for assessment, while others will receive information packages.
Yikes, self-reporting. I wonder if people are more likely to be honest about their symptoms or would they just lie about it.
