As more information on the Coronavirus is released, there are concerns about how far the disease will spread. Officials at Texas State University are aware of the situation and have taken measures to ensure the safety of the campus community. Bradley Barnes has the story...

Texas State President Denise Trauth has issued a statement concerning the school's plans on how to deal with the spread of the Coronavirus. In the email, President Trauth offers assurances because there are no active or documented cases of the virus on campus, but she notes that it's critical for the university to be prepared as the situation evolves.

Though there haven't been any reported cases of the virus on campus, Texas State has canceled some of its school-sponsored study-abroad trips. Students who signed up for studies in China, Italy, and Japan are no longer able to go under the new travel restrictions.

President Trauth says that there will be periodic updates on the spread of the virus. In the meantime, the Student Health Center recommends standard hygienic precautions, like frequent hand-washing with soap and water or hand sanitizer, and staying home when you're sick.
