Orange County has another possible new case of coronavirus disease, according to the Orange County Health Care Agency.

On its website late Friday, March 6, the Health Care Agency added a third “presumptive” positive case to two others it had documented earlier in the week.

Results on tests county public health officials confirmed Tuesday, March 3, were sent to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, but the federal agency had yet to provide further confirmation of the findings, Jessica Good, Orange County Health Care Agency public information officer, said Friday, just hours before the third possible case was disclosed.

The Health Care Agency’s website indicated the third possible case involved a man between the ages of 18 and 49. No further information was available from Good immediately after the website was updated.

The Orange County Health Care Agency was treating the two people involved in the earlier possible cases — a man in his 60s and a woman in her 30s — as if they are positive for COVID-19, the technical name for the viral disease, Good had said.

“These individuals have been fully cooperative with our Public Health Services team, and are currently under home isolation until they are medically cleared,” Good said.

It was uncertain when the county would hear from the CDC about the first two test results. Now there is a third to consider.

“We do not know how long it will take for the CDC to complete confirmatory testing, but when we do receive the results we will update the case count numbers on our website,” Good said.

The county posts case count updates Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on a section of its ochealthinfo.com website dedicated to coronavirus information. So far, Orange County has had one confirmed case of COVID-19 and that person has since recovered.

All of the cases were determined to be travel related, according to the Health Care Agency’s website.
