Caldwell County is reporting yet another positive case of coronavirus (COVID-19).
Judge/Executive Larry Curling reported Sunday morning that the Pennyrile District Health Department confirmed the case was a 64-year-old female who is self-quarantined at home. He added that the new case brings Caldwell’s total cases to eleven, one of which includes another 64-year-old female who confirmed positive on Thursday.
Currently two of the county’s eleven are hospitalized with the virus, the remaining nine are in self-quarantine in their homes.
