    There are fears Softball NZ officials may have been exposed to coronavirus

    There are fears Softball NZ officials may have been exposed to coronavirus


    Two people flew to Auckland on March 2, following the WBSC Men's under 18 Softball World Cup in Palmerston North.

    It's believed they caught the same flight as a woman who was diagnosed last night with coronavirus after returning from northern Italy.

    Softball NZ says neither person has shown symptoms and they haven't been asked to self-isolate.
