The Mountain State still has no confirmed cases of the virus. As of Monday afternoon, the state Department of Health and Human Resources reported there have been 84 cases tested in total. Eighty of those have been negative. Four of the cases are pending, and zero have come back positive.

Dr. Cathy Slemp, state health officer and commissioner of the state Bureau for Public Health, said the majority of the people who are being tested currently are those seriously ill in hospitals or near hospitalization or those who may have been exposed to the virus.

Slemp said the DHHR is aiming for a one- or two-day turnaround time for the tests, which are generally completed in batches of about 20. Some tests have preliminary testing and then the test runs about six or seven hours.

"The bottom line is our president is urging all of us, as I am urging all West Virginians, to stay calm, be smart, use great hygiene, take care of the people who are elderly that you can help,” Justice said.

Justice said Trump assured him there is not going to be a shortage of food or supplies at grocery chains.

Justice said he does not recommend closing restaurants and bars just yet.

He's basically following Trump's line of bullshit - don't worry, be happy!.........
