Subsequent to the publication of the dashboard on Tuesday 1st September, 2020 with the cut off time of 6pm, nineteen samples were processed at the Mount St. John’s Medical Center’s Laboratory which increased the pending results from thirty-one to fifty.

Of the thirty-one samples sent to CARPHA, one returned positive, twenty-nine were negative and one was voided. The single positive case has a recent travel history.
