13 Spanish Returnees (Gomez Ulla, negative)

Cohort still at 13. All remain symptom-free and PCR-negative at Gomez Ulla hospital in Madrid. Spanish health secretary Javier Padilla said the group 'was not presenting news after giving negative on the PCR test.' Spanish protocol requires a repeat PCR seven days after arrival, then weekly tests through the 42-day window. The group will stay in the hospital through day 28, at which point each person will be reviewed for possible early release to home quarantine if their reports and tests remain negative. No follow-up positives, no seroconversions, no releases reported
