109th Covid-19-related fatality reported on Guam; 50 test positive

“There is no pain like losing a loved one. To his family and friends, please accept our condolences and sympathies,” said Guam Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero. “As we lose more and more of our neighbors to Covid-19, we cannot become numb to the news. These people are more than numbers — they were friends, co-workers, siblings, parents, children. They are more than the illness they succumbed to. So it is our duty, our responsibility to keep each other safe. Our vigilance is the only vaccine we have.”

There are 50 new cases of which 19 were identified through contact tracing. One case reported recent travel and was identified in quarantine

To date, there have been a total of 6,705 officially reported cases of Covid-19 with 109 deaths, 1,639 cases in active isolation and 4,957 not in active isolation.

As of Nov. 25, 2020, the Covid Area Risk or CAR Score is 6.8. The CAR Score accounts for the incidence of new cases, how well current testing identifies these cases, and the rate of spread. An ideal CAR Score for Guam would be 5.0 and below.
