JAKARTA/BOGOR: Indonesia is not hiding anything over the coronavirus, the health minister said on Tuesday (Feb 11), after some medical researchers expressed concern that cases may have gone undetected in the world's fourth most populous country.

While the virus has quickly spread from China throughout much of the rest of the region and beyond, the sprawling South-East Asian country of more than 260 million people has not recorded any cases so far.
