Three new cases of COVID-19 coronavirus have been confirmed in Jefferson, Fayette and Harrison counties, Gov. Andy Beshear said Sunday evening.
About an hour and a half prior to the governor’s broadcast, the state lab in Frankfort confirmed three new positive cases of the novel coronavirus.
“All of the individuals are in isolation,” he said. “We will have no more information on these cases at this time because this is that new.”
I am 7 miles from Jefferson County, Kentucky (greater Louisville area, but live across the Ohio River in southern Indiana), so this is getting real close to home, now. Thanks for the update!!!
I wonder if all 3 of these individuals had traveled recently to a foreign county or something like that, my gut feeling is most cases are near a Interstate hwy and the spread of it across this county will be buy the Interstate Hwy's possible through rest stops and gas stations.
