 The Ministry of Health and Wellness has ramped up COVID-19 testing amid community spread of the virus. 124 tests were conducted on Monday 26 October. There were no positive cases in that batch. Chief Medical Officer Dr. Sharon Belmont George on Tuesday provided an update on the national situation during a live press conference on NTN. We presently have 36 active cases, 27 recoveries and zero deaths. The age range is from 3 years to 84 years. We now have 236 persons in quarantine. We've done a total of 10,291. I have to add the 124 from yesterday to bring it to over 10,000, about 400 tests done. On Sunday we recorded the largest number of tests done in any one day which was 439 and we also recorded the total number of cases which we recorded on Monday which was nine. The past weekend was also a record for us in terms of testing where we did 1,539 samples were processed over the past weekend and from the period the 11th to the 25th we processed 2,567 samples in relation to the contact tracing for the increased cases that we are noting. Two physicians are among the positive COVID cases recorded recently. Dr. Belmont George informed that one is a contact of case 39. There has since been massive testing at the Owen King European Union Hospital, the OKU with 119 tests conducted. This resulted in one case being detected. The hospital is in a very proactive way. From the time the contact tracing was done and even before the confirmation of those cases they did put a plan together to see how they would quarantine those persons who need to be and to provide services to the public because as you would imagine this is our main public hospital. So in a very proactive way they've looked at how they would recruit staff from other public facilities also part-time staff to ensure that emergencies are dealt with and services which for some of the outpatient clinics are being provided within our community services. So far from the 119 tests that were done both clinical staff and support services, we had one more positive which was detected within the hospital. So we anticipate that after the period of quarantine and retesting we would gradually go back to normal. It also gave the hospital the opportunity to review their protocols and their policies to ensure adherence at every level within the hospital setting. So it is something which we've prepared for. We anticipated especially the hospital is seen as a high-risk institution.
