A third firefighter for a Massachusetts department has been hospitalized with COVID-19.
An Attleboro firefighter recently began experiencing severe symptoms from the virus and was taken to Sturdy Memorial Hospital, WBTS-TV reports. Two other firefighters had been released from the hospital after being admitted for more than a week.
Multiple firefighters exposed to COVID-19 are currently quarantining. Last month, nine firefighters and two dispatchers positive for the virus.
