A Passenger Infected with the Coronavirus was on a Delta Flight from JFK to Rochester, Officials Say

A person who recently tested positive for the coronavirus was on a Delta Flight that left New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport and landed at the Greater Rochester International Airport on Saturday, according to health officials in Monroe County, N.Y.

Delta flight 4824 left New York at 4:05 p.m. and arrived in Rochester at 5:55 p.m., the Monroe County Public Health Department said in a statement issued on Wednesday evening.

Health officials said the individual has been isolated since they arrived in Rochester and their “close household contacts have been under self-quarantine.” The statement advised any individuals on the flight and anyone who was in the Greater Rochester International Airport between 5:45 p.m. and 6:45 p.m. to “monitor for symptoms of fever, cough, and shortness of breath” and contact their healthcare provider if these symptoms emerged.

Delta said in a statement emailed to TIME that the “safety and health of (their) customers and crew remain (their) top priority.”

“With regard to reports of any COVID-19 exposure, we continue to follow all guidelines from the CDC and local health officials,” the statement said.

The airline industry is one of many transportation industries to take a significant hit because of the COVID-19 outbreak and many, including Delta, have reduced capacity and in some cases suspended service altogether for domestic and international flights.

Correction, March 21

The original version of this story misstated when the Delta flight in which a passenger on board later tested positive for coronavirus left New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport and landed at the Greater Rochester International Airport. The flight departed and arrived on Saturday, not on Sunday.
