The individual's condition is being closely monitored by health officials as they prepare to return to the United States. The repatriation effort comes as the US government continues to take steps to protect its citizens from the rapidly spreading outbreak, which has already infected thousands worldwide. As the situation in China remains fluid, the CDC's confirmation of another affected American raises concerns about the potential for further transmission."
