California’s Sonoma County Declares Local Emergency on Virus

(Bloomberg) -- California’s Sonoma County declared a local emergency after a resident was found to have a presumptive positive case of the coronavirus.

The resident recently returned from a cruise ship that had traveled from San Francisco to Mexico, and has been in the county for 10 days, the Department of Health Services said in a statement. The patient is currently in stable condition in an isolation room at a local hospital.

The case is the second for Sonoma County in the past week.
