IRAN THREAD:
There are several imported cases of #coronavirus, of which we know patients had travelled to Iran:
Kuwait: 3
Canada: 1
Afghanistan: 1
Bahrain: 1
Iraq: 1
According to studies of @MRC_Outbreak, @mlipsitch & @chpoletto, only 2/3 of imported cases are detected. 
Iran reported 47 cases till date. We already know about 7 imported cases. Most likely, Iran is underdetecting/reporting cases.
Still, authorities in multiple countries are not taking any preventive measures against Iranian visitors.
2/3
For instance, two flights from Iran to Germany have arrived today, more to Europe are still scheduled. Given the fact high surveillance countries, like Germany, only detect 40% of imported cases, they will likely detect even less when not responding to the outbreak in Iran. 3/3pic.twitter.com/X8udxEQgcP
Add 2 in UAE. Ratio of domestic versus international cases linked to Iran is telling: cases in Iran far higher than reported
Lebanon also
