Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his government is making every effort to ensure Canada has the best possible response to the coronavirus outbreak in China.
He spoke to reporters just as the World Health Organization announced it would not yet declare the virus a global emergency.
Health Minister Patty Hajdu says several people in Canada are under observation for signs they may have contracted the coronavirus from China, but that the risk to Canadians remains low.
