MADISON COUNTY HAS SECOND CORONAVIRUS CASE
 
Anderson, IN - The Madison County Health Department has been notified by the Indiana State Department of Health, of a second patient in Madison County who has tested positive for the COVID-19 virus.   This patient is in their early 20’s.   Younger people need to know they can be infected with this virus, become sick and pass it on to others.
 
MCHD is working with ISDH and the medical community to identify any close contacts of the patient to ensure appropriate, proper precautions are taken in accordance with the latest CDC guidance. 
 
“The longer people take to follow the rules we have put in place, the longer our restrictions will be in place.  If people want to get back to normal, please follow these rules. We are asking the community to comply. This is not the time to say, “these rules do not apply to me”. This is in our back yard and moving quickly. Stay put”, said Dr. Stephen J. Wright, Madison County Health Officer.
