Cases of the coronavirus (COVID-19) are starting to appear in the DC metro area. So far, 9 people in our area have tested positive for the virus, including an 80+ year old man from Fairfax City, after traveling home from a Nile river cruise.
Since the coronavirus started in Wuhan, China, it has infected more than 107,000 people globally, killing more than 3,600, including 17 in the U.S. More than 60,000 people have recovered from the virus. Nationwide, there have been 437 cases of the virus. The Johns Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering has a comprehensive map that is tracking global cases of coronavirus in real time.
