Beijing, May 14 (Yonhap) -- Chinese health authorities have quarantined four
inbound South Koreans with suspected new flu symptoms, the South Korean Embassy
in Beijing said Thursday.
The four Koreans, who arrived in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, this afternoon,
were moved to a hospital for tests as they were running slight fevers, an embassy
official said.
"Test results will be available as early as this evening or tomorrow," the
official said.
To date, a total of 17 people, including the four, have been quarantined, with
13 of them later released.
