(CNN)A cruise ship passenger died from the coronavirus less than two weeks after he returned home, marking California's first death as the disease sickens people in 15 states.
The death reported Wednesday was linked to the Grand Princess cruise ship, and was the first coronavirus fatality outside Washington state, where 10 people have died.
The cruise ship's being held off the California coast so federal health officials can screen the people aboard, some of whom were on an earlier cruise with the California victim.
The unidentified victim was 71 and had underlying health conditions, Placer County health officials said. He was likely exposed to the virus on the cruise from San Francisco to Mexico between February 11 to 21.
After the Grand Princess finished its Mexico trip last month, it went on another cruise to Hawaii and is on its way back. Some passengers on the current cruise were on the previous one.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency and said local health officials are working with their federal counterparts to trace people who'd had contact with the patient.
"This emergency proclamation will help the state further prepare our communities and our health care system in the event it spreads more broadly," he said.
The ship's carrying about 2,500 passengers on its current voyage. Eleven passengers and 10 crew members have developed symptoms, Newsom said.
