Seventh U.S. Coronavirus Case Confirmed in Bay Area

Breitbart: The seventh U.S. case of coronavirus has been confirmed in Santa Clara County, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced on Friday.


The federal public health agency said the patient is a male who resides in the Bay Area. To date, three cases have been confirmed in California, two in Illinois, one in Arizona, and another in Washington state. Earlier Friday, White House announced that the U.S. will ban all foreign nationals who have traveled to China in the last 14 days. The ban will begin at 5:00 P.M. EST on Sunday.

“These prudent, targeted, and temporary actions will decrease the pressure on public health officials screening incoming travelers, expedite the processing of U.S. citizens and permanent residents returning from China,” Health and Human Service Secretary Alexander Azar said at a press briefing.

The Trump official then reaffirmed that the virus poses a low risk to Americans.

“The risk of infection for Americans remains low and with these and our previous actions we are working to keep the risks low,” he said.

On Thursday evening, the State Department issued a “Do Not Travel” advisory for China due to the ongoing outbreak. read more

  1. @ joe6pak, but that’s not why ZH was booted. Apparently they were booted for doxxing a chinaman who has done intimate past (and well documented) work with coronavirus in bats in Wuhan. It all lines up in a very creepy manner. Yet his phone number and location was already public knowledge. That’s twatter for ya.

  2. Radio news said #9 found in NY. Did not say “City”
    though I think probable. They said something like “it’s
    not bad because he wasn’t living in a family or
    group setting”. That’s BS. How did he get there
    and how many ppl were nearby on a bus, train or plane?
    What places did he eat in, etc, etc, etc.
    I am seeing some very rough estimates
    on speed of transmission being over twice that of
    the”Spanish Flu” that was so deadly during WW I.
    If so……….
