(Fort Worth, TX) — The rector at Trinity Episcopal Church in Fort Worth has been identified as the Tarrant County patient infected with the Coronavirus after attending a conference in Kentucky.
The Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth says the Reverend Dr. Robert Pace is isolated in a hospital after the presumptive positive test. His wife is self-quarantined at home after testing negative for the virus. The diocese says all buildings and worship services are canceled for the time being.
Around 45 people may have been exposed to Pace last week after he spoke at a Lenten program. Tarrant County Public Health is expected to contact those people.
