CWU Students Tests Negative for Coronavirus

The Kittitas County Public Health Department says the Central Washington University student who was under quarantine while they tested for coronavirus has received a clean bill of health.

In a statement, County Health Officer Dr. Mark Larson said, "We are thrilled that the CWU student is feeling well, that the test results returned negative, and our community partners worked so closely with us."

He says they try to balance public safety with decisions that would limit a person's freedom of movement.

The student is no longer isolated and is considered stable.
