“Dear Colleagues,
We have been informed that at least 15 additional members of the Duke community who were part of the same overseas travel group that we reported on Friday have tested presumptively positive for COVID-19. Four other members of this group were diagnosed with COVID-19 in another country and are remaining there until they have recovered.
All members of this group were directed by Durham County Department of Public Health and Duke to undergo a self-quarantine at their homes off-campus upon returning to Durham and that will continue until they receive medical clearance. We understand that the individuals who tested positive are in good health.
Durham County Public Health and Duke Health will work to test all other individuals who traveled with this group.

So they went to China. The fact they don’t say where clinches it.
Exactly! Why sensor the news? Mustn’t want to lose $$$$ from the master Chinese sources.
Thanks NotCoach.
I was look for the travel spot, and could not find mention of that.
However you hit the Communist nail on the head.
Will Nifong charge them with a crime?
Glad people still remember that.
It makes me so angry that the many faculty who signed the letter may still be working there.
Hey Notcoach, it’s even crazier than that. Guess where Duke has an international satellite campus?
Wuhan China.
I kid you not. See: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_Kunshan_University
I guess you won’t find bat fricassee on the menu in the future. Sad.
It’ll be back….with a Lysol sauce.
Bet they brought back lots of Wuhan Bat souvenirs though….
