Pittsfield Official: One More Person Isolated Because Of Covid 19

Another quarantine connected to coronavirus concerns is underway in Pittsfield.

The city's health director says she was advised by the state yesterday that the precautionary quarantine was for someone who had traveled to a low-risk area of China.

This is the fifth person to be quarantined in the city; a family that went under a quarantine last month is set to wrap it up this upcoming weekend.

There are 259 people that are currently being monitored.

Most schools in the state say they have already, or will soon cancel trips overseas as the Governor has requested.

There have been just two cases in Massachusetts.
