The patient was discovered in San Diego, Calif., at the Marine Corps Air Station Miramar. The infected individual had returned to America on a State Department chartered flight on Feb. 7, and is now under federal quarantine, according to a press release.
The CDC said anyone who has been in the Hubei Province in Central China over the last two weeks, is considered to be “at high risk” of exposure and must submit to a 14-day quarantine.
