A third patient in Maryland is being tested for possible coronavirus, state health officials say, a day after Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan announced two people who had recently traveled to China have undergone testing for the virus.
As with the two patients Thursday, the third patient met the criteria from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to be tested for the new virus, known as COVID-19. This means the CDC will examine their cases and determine if they actually have the virus.
It’s unclear if the third patient recently traveled to China. Charlie Gischlar, a Maryland Department of Health Spokesman, told WTOP that two of three patients now under investigation traveled internationally. “At this time, we have no additional information about the third case,” he said in an email.

Media has blown this up to try and help Democrats by clapsing the economy.
If it’s possible than it’s not factual. Let’s just wait and see what it actually is, THEN write our story,
True but what say you about Europe?
Isn't the clap sometype of STD?
It's a flu ....that's all...just a flu virus
Close the borders
Whats this recent visit to china BS. I need to hear an operational use of recently visited in these cases. Also need to know how long this virus can last in the system before showing signs. I think these MD cases are BS.
Just like with rabies, Maryland state government is not going to tell the public where the cases are located. It's for our own good, you know (Sar).
One is local
