The number of people in the Bailiwick who have tested positive for Covid-19 has risen by 18 in the last 24 hours to 78.
The positive results are a result of infections acquired in UK, France, Tenerife, Mainland Spain, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Jersey and Guernsey.
Two of these patients are being managed at the PEH but neither currently need intensive care or ventilatory support.
Seventy five people are currently waiting for results.
The next 7 - 14 days will be critical as we determine if the cases introduced to Guernsey have resulted in secondary cases that have affected the more vulnerable in our community.
Contact tracing is on-going for the contacts of the cases identified. This occurs on a daily basis and on into the evening. This is progressing well and at least two of the new cases were identified through the contact tracing process.
It is estimated there are 1,439 islanders under compulsory self-isolation, which equates to 2.2% of the island's population.
