Five More People in North Carolina Test Positive for COVID-19

MONDAY, MARCH 9, 2020
Five more people in Wake County have tested presumptively positive today for COVID-19 (novel coronavirus). All traveled to Boston in late February to attend a BioGen conference. Several cases of COVID-19 across the country have been tied to the conference. These cases are not related to the Wake County individual who tested positive last week. All are in isolation at their respective homes.

1. Worser and worser

There was an early case in MA, back when there were only 15 confirmed cases in the US. Wonder if these cases are connected to that. Which could mean more undiagnosed cases or exposures in MA.

2. And where have those MA people been travelling?

My intent is not to scare anyone about the spread, only to keep track of it as much as possible.

3. Thanks for the updates.

I'm 100 miles from Wake County. This info is very important to me.
