Johnson County confirms three new coronavirus cases, including the first two in Cleburne
Johnson County confirmed three new coronavirus cases Wednesday, including the first two in Cleburne.
The county has 13 confirmed cases, including seven in Burleson, one in Mansfield and three in unincorporated Johnson County, and two people being monitored.
Both Cleburne patients are in home isolation. Cleburne Mayor Scott Cain urged residents to stay home except for essential errands in a video posted on Facebook.
“We knew it was only a matter of time before confirmed cases were in the city and have taken a measured approach to combat the spread locally,” Cain said in a Facebook post. “In order to reduce the risk of being infected or infecting others, it takes all of us doing our part by staying at home and practicing physical/social distancing when we do need to get out.”
