He is saying this unknown infected person had the same virus as the first infected person in the US. That means community transmission possible for 6 weeks.

One more update: my best guess at a p-value here is 0.03 as above based on shared mutations (still possible this pattern was chance). If we get another sequence or two from additional WA community cases this should clinch the matter one way or another.

Ok thanks to you both. Did he say if they have figured out how that happened? Are they trying to do any notification of this person’s contacts or is that a moot point now?
