Two Bay Area hospital staffers have been determined "presumptive positive" for coronavirus, public health officials announced.
They are employed by the NorthBay VacaValley Hospital in Vacaville, where a Solano County woman was treated before being tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday. Hers was believed the first U.S. case to be contracted without traveling abroad or coming in close contact with someone who had the virus.
Officials said both workers — one from Alameda County, the other from Solano County — had been exposed to the "community-acquired case" hospitalized at UC Davis Medical Center. They are currently in isolation at home and will not return to work until they are cleared.
“We took immediate and comprehensive measures intended to stop any further spread of the virus, including working with public health officials to trace the contacts the two workers may have had,” Aimee Brewer, president of NorthBay HealthCare Group, said in the news release.
In response, Alameda County has declared a local public health emergency, joining San Francisco, Santa Clara and San Diego.
加州多出来的两个感染者应该是NorthBay VacaValley Hospital医护人员， 医治Solano County确诊病例的那个医院。 CDC这下作死大发了 https://www.sfgate.com/coronavirus/article/Two-Bay-Area-workers-coronavirus-test-positive-15097257.phphttps://abc7news.com/5977795/ Two Bay Area hospital staffers have been determined "presumptive positive" for coronavirus, public health officials announced.

现在能够检测出来的恐怕也都是冰山一角。
好奇到时候 presumptive 怎么转 confirmed... cdc 再测一遍？按cdc 的效率， 估计得测到明年了
这个也想知道。不过presumptive地方已经可以采取措施了，应该影响不大
presumptive就是cdc保面子的说法。
可以读为地方检测结果。
问题是CDC的kit能work么？别回头CDC一测还阴性，最后说不能confirm,按阴性走。
希望CDC顶多review一下local lab的methodology to confirm就完了, 求求他们不要再测了。
我邪恶地发现居然全都是深蓝州
CDC的检测是病毒的三个基因片段，或者类似的，总之是会有三个结果互相validate, 但是试剂盒生产时出了问题，三个检测中的一个不work，会跟另外两个检测矛盾，造成结果没法validate. 所以现在各州用的试剂盒就只用了两个测试，然后cdc实验室再把第三个测试做一遍最终confirm. (实验室的测试跟试剂盒生产不是一条线所以第三个测试是work的).
看twitter上纽约和弗罗里达州也有了，网站还没来得及更新
