The individual was taken to the University of California San Diego Medical Center for observation and isolation and is “doing well,” the hospital said in a statement. A spokesman for the medical centre declined to comment on the report, but said the hospital would soon be releasing a statement. The individual was among four patients taken to the UC San Diego Medical Center for further evaluation last week. On Monday morning, CDC officials advised San Diego Public Health that further testing revealed one of the four patients tested positive for coronavirus and was returned to UC San Diego Health until cleared by the CDC for release. “Both patients are doing well and have minimal symptoms,” the medical centre said.
