Two tested positive through DPHSS and 196 tested negative for SARS-CoV-2. Results include 190 samples from COVID-19 drive-through testing held at the Mongmong Church. 

To date, there have been 182 cases confirmed through COVID-19 testing provided with 5 deaths, 164 released from isolation, and 13 active cases. New criteria for release of cases from isolation were implemented on May 22. For persons having symptoms, at least 10 days have passed since recovery defined as resolution of fever without the use of fever-reducing medications and improvement in respiratory symptoms (e.g., cough, shortness of breath) and any other symptoms attributed to COVID-19 infection AND at least 10 days have passed since symptoms first appeared—or, with recurrent symptoms, at least 10 days have passed since recurrent symptoms appeared—AND at least 14 days have passed since the date of their first (or most recent) positive COVID-19 diagnostic test. For persons without symptoms, at least 14 days have passed since the date of their first (or most recent) positive COVID-19 diagnostic test assuming they have not subsequently developed symptoms since their positive test.


DPHSS Guidance for Occupancy Limit, Updated Guidance for Dine-in Restaurants
