MADISON (NBC 26) -- Another person in Wisconsin is being tested for coronavirus, according to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services' website.

The latest Monday update on the site lists one person as "pending" for test results on the virus. No other details were released about the person.

Test results for 14 other people in Wisconsin have come back negative. Only one person in Wisconsin has tested positive for coronavirus.

The person who tested positive was quarantined in their Dane County home. The patient will remain in self-isolation until it's determined they're no longer infectious. It's unclear how long that will take.

The latest update from Wisconsin DHS states the health risk to the general public in Wisconsin, and the U.S. as a whole, remains low.
