California Gov. Gavin Newsom said that 114 people have tested positive for the COVID-19 coronavirus while 1,540 individual Californians on the Grand Princess cruise ship held off the coast of the state are being monitored.
“That number is fluid,” said Newsom in a televised news conference on Sunday. “That’s the number that we have from this morning.” Overall, around 10,400 people are being monitored for the disease, and one person died from the virus in Placer County last week, according to the governor.
