But Prime Minister John Briceno is not among the new positives. His driver Edwin Hill had tested positive for COVID 19 earlier this week and that had forced the PM to be put into isolation.
Well, tonight, he's out of isolation after the results of a rapidito PCR test came back Negative for COVID 19.
This morning at 11:04, Prime Minister John Briceno's PCR test for COVID 19 came back negative.
A spokesperson for his office explains that because he was on vacation - the PM had not been in regular contact with Hill until Monday morning. Hill went for his test on Tuesday morning, then immediately went on sick leave when the result came back positive. And that limited exposure to Hill, plus negative PCR and Rapid Tests, is what cleared the PM to come out of isolation.
Pictures from the PM's office taken yesterday show him getting tested and receiving a briefing from Senior Health Inspector Lisa Tillett.
