IDOC experienced its first brush with coronavirus as a woman who had traveled to a part of the United States where the disease is present was confirmed as one of two presumptive positive cases of 2019 Novel Coronavirus in Pennsylvania.
Offiicals said the woman is being self-quarantined for up to 14 days in her own home and urged the public not to panic, but to observe preventative practices to avoid the disease such as washing hands with soap and water for 20 seconds; covering your mouth and nose with your elbow when you cough or sneeze; clean surfaces frequently including countertops, light switches, cell phones, remotes and other frequently touched items; and especially staying home if you are feeling sick.
State Rep. Greg Vitali, D-166 of Haverford, said the woman had attended a conference in Boston, Mass. and when she returned went to Crozer-Chester Medical Center, where she was treated for symptoms related to coronavirus.
"This individual had recently traveled to an area of the United States where COVID-19 is present. The female adult is currently in their home in isolation. The Health Department is conducting aggressive contact tracing to identify the people this individual may have come into contact with. The Health Department is contacting those people."
