Poland govt in quarantine after minister diagnosed with virus

WARSAW, March 17, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – Poland’s government was under quarantine
on Tuesday after one minister tested positive for the novel coronavirus as
authorities introduced sweeping measures to combat the spread of the disease.

All members of the government who attended the March 10 meeting had been
tested and the results should be known Tuesday, said Michal Dworczyk. “Until
that time, all these people remain in quarantine,” he told reporters.
