We begin with the first case of mers transmitted on u. S. Soil. Federal Health Officials believe an illinois man picked up the virus after shaking hands with an indiana man. Now, centers for Disease Control investigators are trying to figure out how to keep the potentially deadly virus from spreading any further. An unidentified illinois businessman is believed to be the first mers infection transmitted right here in the u. S. At first he tested negative but a followup test showed his body fought off the potentially fatal disease. Every single case is different. It is a spectrum of possibilities and were trying to learn as much as we can. Reporter Public Health investigators are keeping an eye on this patients for examples and family in close contact while he was infected. They say he probably caught mers during two business meetings with the man theyre calling patient number 1, a Health Professional who worked in saudi arabia with mers patients and brought the disease stateside last month. This virus is more easily transmissible than we thought initially. Reporter investigators say the two only shook hands. The illinois man was told to stay home, wear a mask and avoid contact with his family. The virus has killed more than 160 people, all of them in the middle east. Theres growing fear that mers is going to spread from the saudi arabia peninsula very soon. Travel season to the peninsula is about to kick off. Weve got pilgrimage holidays and ramadan coming up at the end of june. Reporter everyone who shared a flight with patient number 1 from indiana has been tested. Theyre working to find passengers in 39 states who shared flights with patient number 2, who flew from saudi arabia and was hospitalized in orlando. No other passengers have had symptoms. While the cdc is encouraged by the case of the illinois man who tested positive without getting sick, Health Investigators remain cautious. Until you can be certain that thats the norm, that people can get this and have no problem whatsoever, theyre going to be all over it and check every single case. Reporter test results will show if the illinois man transmitted the virus to anyone else. Now, doctors say it takes between two days and two weeks to develop the disease. So anyone who came in contact with the man from illinois would be sick by now. Investigators say at least 47 homes were destroyed during last weeks outbreak of nearly a dozen wildfires in san diego county. People are now returning to their neighborhoods to find out just how close those flames came to their doorsteps. For many it is a devastating discovery, though they are thankful for what really matters. We have our loved ones, and our friends are still here and, you know, our animals, and thats whats more important. These are all just things that be replaced. Governor jerry brown says california is gearing up for what could be one of the worst wildfire seasons in history. He says the state has set aside 600 million, but that might not be enough. And now to some politics. Republicans once again going after Hillary Clinton and their concerns about her health. Abcs Tahman Bradley joins us now from washington with all the details. Good morning, tahman. Reporter good morning, diana. It seems like weve traveled through time to the middle of the president ial campaign. Hillary clinton is taking the kind of fire usually reserved for a partys nominee. Hillary clinton may not officially be running for president , but republicans are sharpening their attacks. Gop insiders say if she runs in 2016, shell have to answer questions about her health and age. Im not a doctor. What i do know is that the issue is going to come up as it does for any person running for president. Reporter back in december 2012, clinton suffered a concussion caused by a fall and doctors discovered a blood clot in her head. Republican consultant karl rove suggested the former secretary of state suffered a brain injury. She is going to have to cough up these medical records. Shell be 69 at the time of the 2016 election. Reporter during a busy week in public giving speeches and attending museum openings, clinton shrugged off roves comments. She let her husband respond. Now they say shes really got brain damage. Do you think that if she does, then i must be in really tough shape because shes still quicker than i am. Reporter and then theres benghazi. Republicans are raising more questions about the attack on the u. S. Consulate there and clintons handling of the incident as secretary of state. She clearly bears responsibility for whatever the state department did or didnt do. I dont think weve heard the last of it yet. Reporter republicans say they will likely call clinton to testify before a Benghazi Special committee. Most republicans believe they should go after clinton on benghazi, but the party is more divided about attacking her age and health. Prominent conservative bill kristol admonished rove. Keep in mind, john and diana, that Ronald Reagan was 69 when elected president. All right. Abcs Tahman Bradley live for us in washington this morning. Thank you.
