QuoteTwo people who live in the same household in Atlanta are the first in Georgia to test positive for the new coronavirus, Gov. Brian Kemp and state officials announced Monday evening at a hastily arranged press conference.

The two, who live in Fulton County, showed symptoms of the illness shortly after one of the people returned to Georgia after a trip to the Italian city of Milan, officials said.

Dr. Kathleen Toomey, head of the state's public health department, said the patient who recently traveled to Italy detected the illness quickly, and "astutely" consulted medical officials. She stressed it was a travel-related case and not one linked from person-to-person contact in Georgia.

"I want to reassure you that they're at home, in home isolation with other household members, with minimal symptoms so they're not hospitalized," she said. "The message to the public is still low-risk, low-transmission."

State health officials have long braced for the possibility of local cases of the virus, which has infected nearly 90,000 people worldwide. More than 90 confirmed cases of the disease have been reported in the U.S., including six fatalities, as the virus spreads despite efforts to contain it.

The illness, known as COVID-19, is characterized by fever and coughing and, sometimes, pneumonia and shortness of breath. Most of the cases have been in China, where more than 80,000 have been sickened and at least 2,800 people have died.

But it continues to spread globally and the total of confirmed cases outside of China has surpassed 7,000 cases in 58 countries. Flights have been canceled, travelers have been quarantined and lives turned upside down.
