Now the patient has a body temperature of 37.5 degrees, with symptoms of cough and phlegm. But she remains in stable condition.

The eight close contacts of the patient in hospital were put under quarantine. The local health bureau also tried to find those who may have had close contact with the patient during the flight.

The test results needed to be sent to the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention for a final conclusion.

China's Health Ministry had sent five experts to the province for the patient's treatment and disease prevention work.
