BINGHAMTON, N.Y. — The Broome County Health Department said it is no longer announcing individual locations, like restaurants and stores, where the public may have been exposed to the coronavirus.
The new policy went into effect Wednesday and the department said it was because COVID-19 is widespread in the community.
“The public is urged to protect themselves as if they could be exposed any time they are in public. All individuals who are identified as close contacts of positive cases will continue to be notified of their exposure,” the health department said in a release.
