The most recent reports received by the Ministry of Health, Wellness and the Environment from the Mount St. John’s Medical Center (MSJMC) and the Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) have revealed two new laboratory confirmed COVID-19 cases in Antigua and Barbuda as of Wednesday 20th January 2021.


Subsequent to the publication of the dashboard for Wednesday 20th January 2021 with the cut off time of 6pm, seventy-one additional samples were processed by MSJMC increasing the pending results from forty-seven to one hundred and eighteen.

 

All seventy-one samples processed by MSJMC yielded negative results and are reflected in the total persons tested and total samples taken columns of the dashboard.
