In a growing sign of how coronavirus is disrupting California, Stanford University said Friday night that it will move classes online for the final two weeks of the winter quarter.“The university is actively monitoring the local and global health situation and is taking precautionary measures in an effort to help limit the spread of infection,” officials said in a statement.
“All passengers will be tested,” the vice president said. “Those that need to be quarantined will be quarantined.”Meanwhile, L.A. County confirmed two additional cases of the new coronavirus Friday, bringing the total to 13. The low numbers of tests run in L.A. County so far have been due to limited testing capacity at the lab, not a shortage of test kits, she said. Lab workers had been putting in at least 18 hour days, she said.
As of Friday, L.A. County expanded its criteria to follow guidelines to test for anyone a doctor recommends, not just people with a travel history to countries with major outbreaks, Ferrer said. “Given the rapid spread of COVID-19 around the world, I am not surprised that the virus is in our county,” Dr. Ron Chapman, the county’s public health officer, said in a statement.Solano and Santa Clara counties also have reported coronavirus cases
The public health department is working on tracing the people’s contacts to identify more possible cases, officials said. One of the travelers had been in contact with their primary care doctor, who had requested that the person be tested for COVID-19, officials said. The doctor had the patient stay in their vehicle while dropping off the sample curbside to limit possible exposure, officials said.
In Contra Costa County, two of the three cases announced Friday were also passengers on the Grand Princess cruise ship. The third person had close contact with a person who was diagnosed with the coronavirus in another jurisdiction, county health officials said. All three people were being isolated at their homes.
The number of coronavirus cases worldwide has surpassed 100,000 — with California recording at least 69 — as officials work to contain the virus despite its rapid spread.
