Two received their test results on Wednesday, while the third firefighter was informed of a positive result on March 28. Two are asymptomatic and one is showing symptoms related to the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, according to Hialeah city council member Oscar De la Rosa.
All are quarantined at home, he said.
