The overall count also includes 11 positive cases that were tested by the Naval Health Research Center (NHRC) in San Diego and three confirmed positive cases through Diagnostic Laboratory Services (DLS).

To date, a total of 128 cases tested positive and two were clinically diagnosed with 41 recoveries and four deaths. All 85 remaining cases are in isolation.
