Locations, please.

The five patients — all people who’d traveled recently to Wuhan, China — are hospitalized and in isolation. On Sunday, three cases were confirmed: one in Maricopa County, Arizona; one in Los Angeles County, California; and one in Orange County, California.

Two others were previously reported: one in Everett, Washington and another in Chicago. All remain hospitalized,

There are other confirmed/suspected cases including a high-school student at Yale; a student at Wesleyan, I *think* one in North Carolina, and three in Virginia.

Sorry, too busy following stuff to supply the links at the moment. But I've eyeballed all of those in the last 90 minutes.
