As of June 1, the CNMI had recorded 22 cumulative confirmed cases, 16 recoveries, and two deaths.
“Recovery is our goal while we also ensure that we provide optimal care service,” Covid-19 Task Force Chairman Warren Villagomez said.
Moreover, CHCC continues to monitor individuals even after they are released from the Kanoa Resort quarantine site, he said.
Those who have recovered from Covid-19 were “enrolled” in the Sara Alert system, which monitors their health.
CHCC and the task force are also in the process of turning Kanoa Resort into an alternate care site with hundreds of hospital beds for Covid-19 patients.
However, the governor’s authorized representative, Patrick Guerrero said the construction was delayed by a week due to “some changes and unforeseen circumstances.”
“We could not meet the deadline, but we are now going through the last stages, making sure that everything is in order,” Guerrero said, adding that all of the equipment should be installed this week.
The equipment, which will be flown in for California, should be on island in the next few days.
Guerrero said the same flight from California will also bring additional medical supplies for Saipan, Tinian, and Rota.
Helios Energy Group was contracted by the CNMI government to transform Kanoa Resort into an alternate care site.
