The newest coronavirus patient in the United States has been on a ventilator at a California hospital since last week.

“When the patient arrived, the patient had already been intubated, was on a ventilator, and given droplet protection orders because of an undiagnosed and suspected viral condition,” the University of California Davis Medical Center said in a statement.
