Two Persons from Cd. Juarez Being Tested for Coronavirus
Both had recently traveled to Italy
Another Traveler to Italy Being Tested in Chihuahua

Norte Digital (see link on right side of desktop version of LPNM) reports this morning (click here) that samples from three persons from Chihuahua state have been sent to Mexico City for testing.  Two of these are living in Cd. Juárez, another in Chihuahua.  The results of the tests are expected back this morning.  El Heraldo de Chihuahua is more explicit (click here), reporting that the two cases from Juárez have acute respiratory illnesses ("enfermedades respiratorias agudas"), but do not appear to be serious.  The Heraldo story asserts that the persons have had contact with persons who have been in Europe.  Other news sources have stated the persons had traveled to Italy.
