Residents of Tibet now traveling in mainland China are returning home to escape the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus, which has killed at least 17 people with more than 540 reported infected and is spreading more widely every day, a Tibetan visiting Shanghai told RFA this week. Those going back to Tibet include both ethnic Tibetans and Han Chinese with homes in the Himalayan region, RFA's source said on Jan. 21, speaking on condition of anonymity.
