U.S. health officials are closely monitoring for coronavirus cases in the United States.

This map will be updated as more cases in the U.S. are confirmed. As of Feb. 29, there were at least 69 cases confirmed in the U.S. Several of the cases have been tested by state or local labs and will be confirmed by additional testing by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Twenty-two of the cases were diagnosed in the U.S., and 47 cases are in individuals evacuated from either Wuhan, China or the Diamond Princess cruise ship. One person, a man in his 50s in Washington state, has died.

There has been one U.S. death, in Washington. NBC News has confirmed at least nine patients have recovered: Four in California, two in Illinois, one in Washington, one in Arizona and one in Wisconsin.

1. There is one person being tested for Coronavirus in Oklahoma

according to a guy I talked to yesterday who works for the Oklahoma Health Department.

2. I hope they're ok. Since Oklahoma abuts Texas that doesn't surprise me. I'm wondering

how long before we have cases in every state.

I'm also wondering how much time before it hits my state and how much time I have to get some very needed medical procedures scheduled and done before I go full hermit.

My mom's getting a pacemaker Tuesday and I am nervous about that because of flu season. She caught that last year and we almost lost her.

Lots of things to think about. I wish the best for you, avebury. Thanks for the reply. ❤

3. I thought by now we'd be down to 2 cases, that's what the idiot said.

[question everything]

4. Scary. Hope, at least that we know what we are facing

with all medical centers with tools to test for it and know how to handle it.
