The death toll from the coronavirus outbreak topped 1,100 on Tuesday, after officials reported nearly 100 deaths in the past 24 hours, CBS News reports.

Authorities said there were 45,118 confirmed cases of the disease in China alone, with 395 more in 24 different countries. 

"With 99% of cases in China, this remains very much an emergency for that country, but one that holds a very grave threat for the rest of the world," Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization, warned Tuesday, urging health officials and governments to "use the window of opportunity that we have now."
