“We know of an assumed known exposure source for all six of our new cases that we’re announcing today. This means that as of today … we still don’t have any known cases of community transmission.
“Like other large jurisdictions … we anticipate more local cases. This is because there are increases in outbreaks all across the world and the fact is that people who are not in close contact with folks who are infected with novel coronavirus can … themselves … become infected.”
Los Angeles city and county officials called a conference this morning to announce public health steps being taken to combat spread of the disease.
