A University of Pittsburgh student-athlete is recovering from a case of potential bacterial meningitis, officials said Wednesday.
Pitt said tests on the student, who ran track and lives in the Sutherland East dormitory, were done Tuesday. Results will take three days from that time to confirm the illness.
As a precaution, a spokesman said other students living on the floor of the residence will be provided the single-dose antibiotic. Those who had direct contact with the student are being given preventative antibiotics.
