Traditional settings for transmission were defined as households or close relatives and friends; all other settings were considered nontraditional.

Transmission from a foreign-born person to a U.S.-born person was rare and occurred mainly in public settings. The time from symptom onset to diagnosis was twice as long for transmitters as for nontransmitters (16.8 vs. 8.5 weeks, respectively; p&lt;0.01).
