Sounds like one confirmed in Tidewater. The case in Hanover Health District just hit the news outlets yesterday and is not yet confirmed as far as I know. I thought I heard that person lives in Henrico county but I may not have heard that correctly. I think there are a couple of other suspected cases in Virginia (No. Va. and Tidewater mostly) but none of these have been confirmed either.

Health officials say another Virginian may be sick with SARS

The Associated Press,
WFLS News

(Richmond-AP) -- State health officials say another Virginian may be sick with severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS.

A woman in the Hanover Health District is suspected of having the illness. The health district is comprised of Hanover, New Kent, Charles City and Goochland counties.

That brings to six the current number of suspected SARS cases in the state. The number fluctuates as health officials identify new cases, or rule out others.

This latest case was reported to state health officials on Wednesday. No further details were released.

SARS has killed more than 170 people and sickened three-thousand worldwide.
