'He traveled to the city of 19 million Jan. 20 for his job in esports. Now that Wuhan is ground zero for the coronavirus, Lee can’t leave. He stocked up on enough food and water to last two weeks and only ventures outside when absolutely necessary. More than 6,000 cases of the new viral respiratory illness have been confirmed worldwide Wednesday after an outbreak began last month in Wuhan, according to China’s health commission. The death toll has risen to 132 — all from China. The disease has also shown up in the United States, France, Australia, Canada and Japan. In the U.S., five cases of the virus have been confirmed, all among people who traveled to Wuhan, according to the Associated Press. Lee, the co-founder of a startup who researches global esports markets, is giving the world a glimpse of what it’s like in Wuhan by documenting his unexpected extended stay on video and on Twitter. He’s temporarily changed his name on Twitter to “Warren in Wuhan.” “It’s not the apocalypse out here as much as people have been saying,” Lee said in a video shot from an apartment where he’s staying with his girlfriend. “I’m OK. I’m just kind of figuring out what the everyday, day-to-day is going to be like.”'
