Can someone summarize this article? I don't have online subscription[/quote]

[quote]  the D.C. Department of Health said it was investigating whether members of Christ Church Georgetown were exposed to the deadly virus.
The health department told The Washington Post in a statement early Sunday morning that it had determined that “an individual’s visitation to Christ Church Georgetown warrants precautionary measures.” The department said it recommended that the historic Episcopal church temporarily suspend services out of an abundance of caution.[/quote]

And from an email from the church:
[quote] Beginning tomorrow, Sunday, March 8, Christ Church, Georgetown, will suspend all services and meetings until further notice in response to a presumed positive case of Coronavirus in our Christ Church community. We did not make the decision to close our doors lightly, but out of an abundance of caution for the most vulnerable among us.
The person who has been diagnosed is receiving treatment and is in stable condition. As more information is gathered, we will update the community as appropriate and you can expect another email from the church tomorrow with additional details. [/quote][/quote]

Sounds like to me the sick person is a member of the church and probably lives in Georgetown and attended services there last week.  [/quote]
