The national seven-day average daily test positivity continues on an upward trend as more positive cases have been recorded.

Permanent Secretary for Health, Doctor James Fong, says the test positivity currently stands at 4.4 percent, 0.6 percent short of the World Health Organization threshold of five percent.

WHO’s threshold of five percent means an infection spread is deemed too high.

Doctor Fong says the national 7-day daily test average is 3,124 tests per day or 3.5 tests per 1000 population.

2,459 tests have been reported for June 20th.
