\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>

 <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Subsequent to the publication of the dashboard for Tuesday 23rd February 2021 with the cut off time of 6pm, an additional seventy-eight (78) samples were processed at MSJMC increasing the pending results from two hundred and twenty-six (226) to three hundred and four (304) in total.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Of the seventy-eight (78) samples processed by MSJMC, sixty-eight (68) were negative and ten (10) positive.\u00a0 The ten positive (10) cases are non-imported.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Of the two hundred and twenty-six (226) samples sent to CARPHA, one hundred and ninety-four (194) are still pending.\u00a0 The other thirty-two (32) samples were negative.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Consequently, the total number of persons with laboratory confirmed COVID-19 cases in Antigua and Barbuda is six hundred and forty-six (646); which is inclusive of three hundred and ninety-nine (399) active cases.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
