Tennessee Governor Bill Lee announced Thursday morning that the first case of Coronavirus had been discovered in the state. A man in Williamson County, who recently returned from out of state travel, was asked to self-quarantine in his home. His symptoms are said to be mild.

“While this is a new disease, we have learned that most patients with COVID-19 have a mild respiratory illness, including fever, cough and shortness of breath, and do not require hospitalization,” said a health official during the governor’s announcement. “However, a smaller number of patients can have severe symptoms that do require hospitalization, particularly among the elderly and those with chronic medical conditions. At this time, COVID-19 is not widespread in the United States.”

Officials say that the general public does not need to take any additional precautionary measures at this time. Remember to wash your hands often with soap and water, or an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough, and don’t touch your face with unwashed hands. Stay home if you feel sick.
