TALLAHASSEE, Florida (CNN) -- A Floridian who contracted SARS abroad has infected a coworker, the state department of health said Wednesday, marking the first time the disease may have been spread to someone other than a household member or health care worker. A spokeswoman for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta told CNN the organization was not aware of any spread of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome in the United States among coworkers. She added the CDC does not have guidelines to guard against transmission to coworkers, only to household contacts and health care workers. Other than announcing the case in a brief statement, Florida health officials did not release any details on the coworkers.
