7 Langley firefighters directed to stay home, after exposure to coronavirus

BY , Mar 18, 2020 1:49 AM - REPORT AN ERROR

Seven Langley firefighters have been directed to stay home after exposure to a person confirmed to have the coronavirus.

Chief Stephen Gamble tells CTV Vancouver the exposure occurred several days ago but Langley Fire Rescue was only notified about it yesterday.

Gamble says initially eight members of the service were ordered to self isolate but one has since been cleared to return to work.

He won't speculate on whether the other seven could have exposed other members of the department or the public to COVID-19 until their test results are back.
