No cases so far in the Philippines: They are checking for fevers at the Airport, but of course, the airport is partly shut down due to volcanic ash.

however a case has been confirmed in Thailand. From the SCMP:

In Thailand’s case, the woman was found to be suffering from a fever on arrival at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi airport on January 8, and was initially diagnosed with mild pneumonia in hospital, according to WHO.

however, they report that the suspected case in Hong Kong was found to be another virus.
