The coronavirus emerged in the U.S. weeks earlier than scientists and public health officials previously thought, and before cases in China were publicly identified, according to a new government study released Monday. The virus and the disease it causes, COVID-19, was first detected in Wuhan, China in December 2019, but it wasn't until around January 20 that the first confirmed case of COVID-19 came from a traveler returning from China , found in the United States. However, new findings published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases suggest that the coronavirus, officially known as SARS-CoV-2, infected people earlier in the United States.
