ABC15 spoke with Arizona Department of Health Services Director, Dr. Cara Christ, on camera on Wednesday about the most recent case, but she did not have details about the latest case.

We asked her what city does the man live in, "I don't know, oh goodness, it is Maricopa County," Dr. Christ said, "I don't know the specifics, my team does."

HEALTH OFFICIALS QUIET:

ABC15 has not been given information about this "presumptive positive" case except the connection to Florida's "presumptive positive" case.

It is unclear where the two crossed paths.

"I don't know if they'd traveled to Florida, if they had gone on a trip, but we can find out some more information," Dr. Christ said.

As of Wednesday night, that information was still not given.

It is also unclear when this person entered Arizona, how they returned to Arizona, or if this person came in contact with anyone here.

TEMPE CORONAVIRUS CASE:

Health officials released information at the end of January about the first positive case in Arizona of coronavirus.

Officials released where the person traveled, the city they lived in, and that they were within the ASU community.

As of Monday, 250 people were being monitored in the state of Arizona for coronavirus.

"I've been kind of busy being the face," said Dr. Christ, "I have a whole team of individuals who know the details who are working in very close contact with Maricopa County."

ABC15 did not get an email response from Maricopa County health officials except that the contact occurred outside Arizona.
