SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – A fifth person who was evacuated from the Wuhan region of China and brought to Marine Corps Air Station Miramar was hospitalized Thursday after developing symptoms that warranted further observation for possible exposure to the deadly coronavirus.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the patient — described only as an adult — “developed a fever or a cough” that prompted the precautionary hospitalization. The person was taken to UC San Diego Health.

Four other people, including a 4-year-old girl, were hospitalized Wednesday afternoon, hours after a plane carrying 167 Americans landed at the northern San Diego military base. All of the passengers underwent medical screening upon landing.

How many may have been exposed on that base?

There are now 5 hospitalized from Miramar and another flight due in on Friday.

Shouldn't the other 4 have been tested by now and the results back based on the need for expediency?
