The disease is affecting more and more people and more precaution are being taken. The Chinese league, for example, suspended it's league until the problem is resolved. And Vas is going through a similar situation.
"Ever since the news about the virus came out, we thought how dangerous it was. At first, it started slowly, but soon it became more serious. My girlfriend went back to Sweden, where her family is. She'll be safe there. I'm in Hong Kong, it's a little safer here, there are fewer infections", the Mexican told 'AS'.
"I have to think about my safety first. It's a bit of a difficult situation because my department is in Guangzhou. By coming here I wanted to minimise the risk".
More and more people are taking precautions: "Some players have chosen to leave the country and go home, in Europe or elsewhere. I'm with my family and we prefer to wait a bit. I think everything will work out in the end. I really believe that".
