SHE IS LIVE AT ORLANDO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. KELSI: I’M GOING TO READ THE BEGINNING OF THIS STATEMENT SO YOU CAN HEAR WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THIS AGENT SO FAR. IT SAYS THIS AFTERNOON AFTER MEDICATION WITH THE TSA CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER, THE CDC AND ORANGE COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENT FEDERAL DIRECTOR NOTIFIED ORLANDO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT EMPLOYEES THAT A TRANSPORTATION SECURITY OFFICER RECEIVED AN INITIAL POSITIVE TEST FOR COVID-19. THEY GO ON TO SAY THE OFFICER IS RESTING AT HOME. AT OIA, THEY SAY ALL OFFICERS WHO CAME INTO CONTACT WITH THAT OFFICER HAVE BEEN TOLD TO SELF-QUARANTINE FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. WE SPOKE WITH A COUPLE OF PASSENGERS A FEW MOMENTS AGO AND GOT THEIR REACTION. >> I THINK IT IS EVERYWHERE. I DON’T THINK YOU CAN DETERMINE WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO BE, WHERE IT IS NOT GOING TO BE. I THINK AS LONG AS THEY ARE PUTTING IN THE SAFETY MEASURES IN PLACE, IT DOESN’T MATTER. I THINK IT IS JUST MAKING SURE EVERYBODY IS PROTECTED.- KELSI: THE AIRPORT SAYS IT WILL NOW BE HAVING ENHANCED CLEANINGS AROUND THIS AREA AND IN THE AREAS WHERE THE TSA WORKER WAS WORKING. ALL TSA OFFICERS WILL BE WEARING GLOVES AND SOME WEARING SURGICAL MASKS WHEN YOU GO THROUGH SECURITY SO YOU MAY SEE THAT IF YOU HAVE TO COME TO THE AIRPORT. THE CURIOUS THING YOU MENTIONED AT THE TOP, THIS CASE HASN’T OFFICIALLY BEEN REPORTED BY THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH. RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A TOTAL OF 83 REPORTED CASES IN FLORIDA. THIS ONE HAS YET TO BE ADDED TO THE LIST. WE WILL SEE IF THAT HAPPENS SOON. WE ARE WORKING TO GET ANY INFORMATION IN REGARDS TO WHAT OIA IS DOING TO LESSEN EXPOSURE TO OTHER AGENTS
