Jefferson County has managed to keep the number of COVID-19 cases down to two, and it’s been a few weeks since those individuals — a man and a woman — tested positive, said Karen Wandel, RN, department supervisor for Jefferson County Public Health.
The virus hasn’t spread because the two have done a good job of isolating themselves from others, she said last week in a phone interview.
However, it is not known how at least one of the individuals got the virus, as he didn’t have many contacts, said Wandel, adding that both individuals have recovered and did not need to be hospitalized.
