Sundance Film Festival possible Covid-19 hotspot

Utah's annual Sundance Film Festival may have been an early hotspot in the coronavirus pandemic. 

Utah Department of Health epidemiologist Dr. Angela Dunn said yesterday that she believes the coronavirus was probably circulating at Sundance, given the international crowd that annually attends the festival. 

Dunn says the information holds little public health value, though attendees could get an antibody test to see if they had the virus. 

The Hollywood Reporter has published an article saying some who attended the Park City festival in late January came down with an illness that had symptoms similar to COVID-19
