The Texas Center for Infectious Disease (TCID) in San Antonio is housing at least five people who tested positive for the coronavirus after being brought to Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, according to an article on the KSAT website.
More than 18 people have been transferred off base, either to TCID or local hospitals, after showing symptoms of the virus or while awaiting test results.
