None have symptoms and all that have gone for tests have tested negative. Has no clue where he got it and he's been careful. Light fever for a day and a half, headache for about 4 hrs after fever broke and a little sinus congestion with it. All symptoms gone completely after the 4th day. He's got to get a negative before he can go back to work. He personally now accounts for 4 of the listed cased in AL since he tested positive originally and positive on 3 additional re-tests trying to get a negative. Every test is stand alone and reported seperately into the totals so keep that in mind when you are looking at the total cases listed. Like I said, he's only one person but accounts for 4 of the positives in the AL total.

He could account ror 10-12 of the "new cases" before he tests negative.
