The article says the parent in Palo Alto:
"was reported to have been in public proximity to an infected person" but that "there is no indication of infection at this time."
And the district does not know if this parent is the same person as the third COVID-19 case (the older woman).
Hopefully the district can update the community with the status of the parent...

Less than 12 hours ago, the President called the whole thing a HOAX.
It's silly. That's why Donald Trump appointed Pence to run the whole thing. So silly that Pence's first action was to fly to Florida (for a fundraiser.)
Stop worrying, folks. We're cutting budgets for the CDC, Medicare etc.. Web Link
Quit whining. 45 knows all.

This is so scary. I’m not sure what to do next. Better tune into cable news to get an informed answer.

I would encourage people to forget political postings and focus on the preparedness of our community and our families.

Thanks, Pete. Always sound advice.
“Forget political postings”? Good luck with that. The issue has already been politicized. The esteemed Gail Collins, head of the New York Times Editorial Board, has said that we should call it the “Trump Virus.”
On Feb 5, Chuck Schumer tweeted that President Trump’s halting of flights to China was part of his ongoing war against immigrants. Yesterday, Schumer deleted that tweet.
As for me, I plan to continue to live my life and take these precautions: not get run down, keep my immune system strong, wash my hands frequently, and avoid cable news.
Stay well, everyone!
