A Chicago woman remains hospitalized in suburban Hoffman Estates after being diagnosed with the deadly coronavirus. The Daily Herald reports the woman is in good condition in isolation at Amita St. Alexius Medical Center. At the time she was diagnosed last week, she was only the second confirmed case of the coronavirus in the U.S. As of yesterday, there are five cases. The virus has killed dozens and infected thousands of others in China.
