Hogan, who had previously declared a state of emergency in the state to cope with the health issue, said during a televised press conference in Annapolis that the state Superintendent of Schools had decided—and his team of health and emergency services advisors agreed—that all state public schools will close .as of Monday and stay closed for two weeks to allow deep cleaning and disinfecting of school facilities. The governor announced the first case of a “community” transmission of the virus, meaning that someone with no history of travel outside the US or contact with a known virus-positive person, had been diagnosed in Prince George’s County.
