The first patient to be diagnosed with coronavirus in the US is out of the hospital will remain in isolation while he continues to recover at home, hospital says.
Health officials confirmed that the man, a Washington resident, was diagnosed with the new coronavirus on Jan. 21. He'd traveled to Wuhan, China, in November and December before flying home to the U.S. on Jan. 15.
Health officials are closely monitoring 56 close contacts of the patient for any signs of the illness, which has the ability to spread from person to person. No other details were provided on the man’s condition or release. The Snohomish Health District said doctors will check in with him throughout the recovery period.
