Two coronavirus patients in UNMC's biocontainment unit improve, move to quarantine unit

The two people who were being treated in the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit for the novel coronavirus have been transferred to the separate National Quarantine Unit after their conditions improved.

The two are among 15 Americans who are being monitored for the virus on the University of Nebraska Medical Center/Nebraska Medicine campus. All had been passengers on the Diamond Princess cruise ship off the coast of Japan.

Thirteen of the 15 have tested positive for the coronavirus; two have tested negative and remain healthy. The two who are negative likely will be released from quarantine on Monday.
