7 new COVID-19 cases reported in Bermuda, all imported

There were 2561 test results received by the Ministry of Health from 30th October through 1st November, and seven were positive for COVID-19. The new cases are all classified as imported.

Case isolation and contact tracing has begun for all cases. Bermuda now has 206 total confirmed positive cases. Their status is as follows:

all under public health monitoring, and

Bermuda’s country status is “Sporadic Cases”. The seven-day average of our real time reproduction number is less than 1.

The Ministry of Health wishes to remind members of the public that flu vaccinations are available for the month of November at the Hamilton Health Clinic on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 2pm until 4pm. The public are advised that this will be a walk-in service and NOT a drive through like the one provided at Flu Express. Clients may park in the clinic's car park. For further information call 278-6460.

The public are advised that on 1st November 2020 two visitors to Bermuda broke the requirements of paragraph 12 of the Quarantine (COVID-19) (No. 3) Order 2020 (‘the Quarantine Order’). The individuals willfully broke their quarantine to attend a celebratory gathering, prior to receiving the results of arrival COVID-19 test as provided for under paragraphs 9 and 10 of the Quarantine Order. Both pleaded 'guilty' to the offense. The Crown asked for a fine of $3000 dollars to be paid by defendants who appeared in court today. The defendants stated they didn’t mingle with anyone during the gathering. Their COVID-19 test has since returned a 'negative' result. The court has made the decision to fine them $2500 dollars each or face 250 days in prison.

The Minister of Health the Hon. Kim Wilson JP MP said: "Although it is disappointing that two of our visitors broke their quarantine requirements this weekend, I commend the outcome of today's court decision. The prosecution of these individuals demonstrates that Bermuda takes the protection of our borders and the health of our people extremely seriously. I greatly hope that further breaches will not occur and potential offenders are now dissuaded from such actions."
