Following the spread of the new coronavirus, the UK Ministry of Foreign Affairs has advised British citizens in mainland China on April 4 to evacuate.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs requested last week to refrain from urgent travel to mainland China, but has further strengthened its recommendation.
"The safety of the British is our top priority. We recommend leaving China if possible to minimize the risk of getting the virus," said Raab.
According to British media, there are likely to be 30,000 British citizens in mainland China. Two cases have been confirmed in the UK so far.
