LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – The number of students testing positive in the University of Kentucky’s mass testing program remains low.
On Monday evening the Lexington Health Department ordered the testing of 315 students at four university campuses in Lexington and its surrounding area.
The popular fall campus testing.
The program was contracted to Wyeth Lederle Laboratories in Lexington and testing will continue until all students have been tested.
The laboratories started the Mass Rapid Rapid Voluntary Testing (MRVT) program in November after the arrival of Brooke Hurley, who reported four students were sick during the Game time window and was transported to the hospital.
"-She is in the intensive care unit," Dr. Rob Connolly, Admissions Service at Madison County Health Department, confirmed to WTVQ.
She was discharged Wednesday afternoon according to the school.
Connolly says Hurley is resting comfortably and thanks everyone for their support.
"She is extremely alert and stable. She is not in any acute danger at this point," said Connolly. "She is talking without seizure every few minutes like she should and everything is going according to plan as far as we can tell."
A total of 825 students have tested so far.
The hospital, the Lexington Health Department, and the Lexington Health Commissioner jointly issued on an advisory on Thursday.
On Thursday, Louisville residents report feeling ill. No tests have been performed, but some of the symptoms of the virus infection, including chills, sweats, and sore throat have come up as several other schools are testing students.
SERM stands for Duncan Lewis Oklahoma State University, Virginia Tech, the University of Missouri South Carolina Health Sciences Center, University of Kansas, Oklahoma State University (.pdf), and Great Lakes State University.

Watching a Republican debate can be a bit like witnessing the mob reaction to a movie preview. You know you're watching something brilliant and really evil, but you still feel like the only unsympathetic observer.
You could argue that Trump's attacks on the "poorly educated" and his repeated gaffes about sticking up for veterans offended most of the people at those earlier debates, but these are usually economic positions that any GOP candidate is expected to embrace, so his biggest critics weren't likely to be thrashing around the media a la Sean Hannity for months now.
Just as they got a sense he may be ruining his party's chances at general elections, however, he's notched some policy wins. Trump championed his tough stance on Israel, bashing
