First US case of the new coronavirus was successfully treated in the Seattle area.

SeattlePI report. NEJM journal report. The NEJM item details progression of the patient's symptoms and how the patient was treated.

Remdesivir, a developmental drug without any published clinical testing, luckily was on the shelf before the outbreak hit the US. Who makes it, availability and pricing are not reported.

__________UPDATE___________
The Economist, reporting, the item uses the current Feb. 1 issue's print-version cover image for opening the report.
