NC has reported first case is in Wake County. The North Carolina person from Wake County traveled to the state of Washington and was exposed at a long-term care facility where there is currently a COVID-19 outbreak.

Additionally, we now have a way to test cases in the state. It is at the NC State Laboratory of Public Health.

I will do my best to keep the group informed as we watch this health threat unfold.
