CDC reports its 1st employees tests positive for coronavirus
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced Monday that one of their employees has contracted coronavirus.
The first to test positive for COVID-19 from the agency, the CDC said the individual is in good condition and is isolated to prevent the spread of infection to others. Although CDC headquarters are in Atlanta, Georgia it is unclear where the infected employee is located.
"This individual was not involved in the COVID-19 response, has not been present in the CDC workplace since March 6, and was asymptomatic at that time," the CDC said in a statement.
The agency said it will deep clean the office space that the employee worked out of as other staff from the same space aren't in the office and are teleworking.
