ATLANTA, Ga. (CBS46) – The Georgia Department of Public Health confirmed Tuesday that approximately 200 people in Georgia are self-monitoring for symptoms of the new coronavirus, COVID-19.

These individuals recently returned from China and are self-monitoring for symptoms of the virus from home. The DPH said they are showing no symptoms and there are no Georgia travelers who have returned from Wuhan or Hubei Province requiring quarantine.

DPH epidemiologists contacted the individuals by phone to establish a plan for self-monitoring and gave them instructions on how to contact the agency before they seek health care if they develop fever, cough or shortness of breath.

President Trump issued a federal proclamation in January that included a travel ban for non-U.S. citizens entering the country from China and funneling flights from China to one of 11 airports in the U.S., including Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson International Airport.

1. Oh boy. I'm in Georgia, but not in Atlanta.

However, my town has many foreign students, including those from China and Korea, among other Asian nations.

2. I have a brilliant idea! TEST them starting NOW! If they have it they are already contagious!!!!!!

And if it comes out negative, test them again in a few days! What a bunch of brain dead leaders we have.
