Kildare man Ben Kavanagh is considering his options in the city of Wuhan as plans are being made for the repatriation of Irish citizens following the outbreak of coronavirus. I don’t want to run the risk of infecting any one else,” he told RTÉ radio’s Morning Ireland. He said he has taken the advice of the Irish embassy to “stay inside and stay healthy”.
