Five U.S. cases of Wuhan coronavirus were announced Sunday—with a one being confirmed by health officials in Los Angeles County and the latest case being confirmed by Maricopa County, Arizona, officials.

The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health said Sunday that the sickened person “presented themselves for care once they noticed that they were not feeling well,” adding that the person had recently traveled to the United States from Wuhan, China, where hundreds of people have been infected by the contagious virus.
