The risk of this novel coronavirus to the general public in Illinois remains low, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health.
The husband, a Chicago resident in his 60s, is the second confirmed case of the virus in the state.
The woman, who is in her 60s, is the first confirmed travel-associated case in Illinois and was diagnosed after returning from Wuhan, China.
