The DPHSS overall count also includes an additional two cases of COVID-19 that have been clinically diagnosed. While these cases have tested negative, they have imaging findings consistent with COVID-19, display typical COVID-19 symptoms, have epidemiological links to previously confirmed cases, and are being treated as COVID-19 cases. The overall count also includes 11 positive cases that were tested by the Naval Health Research Center (NHRC) in San Diego and one confirmed positive case through Diagnostic Laboratory Services (DLS).

To date, a total of 126 cases tested positive and two were clinically diagnosed with 33 recoveries and four deaths. All 91 remaining cases are in isolation.
