Two tuberculosis cases, one each at Southwestern College in Chula Vista and San Diego City College, prompted a public health warning Friday morning.
Though the county health department said in a statement that the two cases are unrelated, it also indicated that the areas of concern are not limited to the two college campuses. Metropolitan Transit System’s bus route No. 12, which runs from City College downtown east to the Skyline Hills neighborhood, is also on the watch list.
Possible exposure periods include:
Southwestern College from Aug. 26 to Dec. 10;
San Diego City College from July 26 to Aug. 5 and from Aug. 19 to Dec. 16;
Bus Route 12 from July 26 to Aug. 5 and from Aug. 19 to Dec. 16. Exposures were most likely from Monday through Friday between 7:59 a.m. and 8:47 departing Skyline and from 7:04 p.m. to 8:04 p.m. departing City College.
Both campuses are offering free testing to anyone who thinks they may have been exposed...
