The risk to the general public from the outbreak has not changed and remains low, the CDC said.

The patient's sample showed mutations in the hemagglutinin (HA) gene, the part of the virus that plays a key role in attaching to host cells.

The mutations seen in the patient are rare but have been reported in some cases in other countries and most often during severe infections.
