SEATTLE — Health officials have confirmed a fourth case of the Zika virus in the state.

The King County case involved a man in his 40s who recently traveled in Colombia. That is one of the countries where Zika is actively spreading, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The other three Washington state cases — one confirmed in Clallam County — were found in people who became infected in countries that have active Zika outbreaks.

The young Clallam County woman, who was not identified, had recently traveled to a region of Central America where Zika transmission is occurring, Clallam County Health and Human Services officials said.

She recovered from the illness without complications, they said in March.

No Zika cases have been confirmed in Jefferson County.

The first case in Washington — confirmed Feb. 22 — was a Mason County man in his 20s who had recently traveled to the South Pacific.

The second case was a Spokane woman who followed CDC guidance that pregnant women who had traveled to areas with Zika activity be checked for the virus.

The King County case does not pose a risk to the public, health officials said.

The mosquitoes that transmit Zika aren’t found in the Pacific Northwest, so health officials don’t expect the virus to spread.
