The first case of COVID-19, caused by novel coronavirus (SARS COV-2) in Warren County was identified on March 17, 2020. Since then, cases have been identified in all 22 municipalities.
As cases are reported to the Warren County Health Department, they are investigated as quickly as possible. Cases are interviewed about their symptoms, risk factors, and close contacts, including their place of employment and coworkers when applicable. Beginning April 24, the case definition for novel coronavirus expanded to include “probable” cases; these cases must fit certain epidemiologic and clinical criteria and most often, they are untested, symptomatic household contacts of lab-confirmed COVID-19 cases. Advice is given to all confirmed cases regarding their own selfisolation and investigators notify close contacts of their risk and advise them on 14-day quarantine measures. Information on recoveries is self-reported or reported by a case’s doctor or residential facility.
The statewide COVID-19 count rose by 2,887 new cases and 402 fatalities, for a total of 113,856 total cases and 6,442 deaths as of Tuesday, April 28th.
