An Oklahoma State University student has tested positive for the Coronavirus, according to a statement.
OSU says CDC guidelines were followed, and health officials have notified individuals who may have been in direct contact with the person and provided instructions for self-quarantine.
The student is said to have followed "strict self-quarantine protocol at their residence after the COVID-19 test was performed 10 days ago" and is now nearing a full recovery.
"We have acted by taking unprecedented steps over the last few weeks to protect our campus community and do our part to prevent the spread of this virus," said Burns Hargis, Oklahoma State University President. "We will continue to act and do everything we can to flatten the curve through social distancing and other measures outlined by the CDC and the governor's executive order."
