According to the original Chinese article, we can read the patient is living in Pianguan county (not Partial county as mechanically translated) of Xinzhou City, Shanxi Province and he was diagnosed as H7N9 in Taiyuan city (not in his Xinzhou city).
JFYI: Taiyuan Fourth People's Hospital (or Taiyuan No.4 Hospital) is A-3 or B-3 grade hospital which is basically for lung tuberculosis.
