Ma­son Hall Sec­ondary school re­opened yes­ter­day for in-per­son class­es af­ter it closed be­cause a stu­dent test­ed pos­i­tive for COVID-19.

The stu­dent was the first to get the dis­ease since in-per­son school re­sumed na­tion­al­ly on Feb­ru­ary 8.

An of­fi­cial at the Health, Well­ness, and Fam­i­ly De­vel­op­ment Di­vi­sion said con­tact trac­ing is com­plete, and all per­sons who came in­to con­tact with the in­fect­ed stu­dent at school, test­ed neg­a­tive.

This was al­so con­firmed by an­oth­er of­fi­cial from the Ed­u­ca­tion, En­er­gy, and In­no­va­tion Di­vi­sion who told Guardian Me­dia there was no spread of the virus, and all stu­dents con­sid­ered close con­tacts ob­tained neg­a­tive re­sults af­ter test­ing.

On March 1, the To­ba­go House of As­sem­bly’s Ed­u­ca­tion Di­vi­sion con­firmed the stu­dent test­ed pos­i­tive for the virus.

The di­vi­sion said the school was closed for sani­ti­sa­tion and to de­ter­mine whether COVID-pro­to­cols were be­ing fol­lowed.

The stu­dent was one of four peo­ple who test­ed pos­i­tive for COVID-19 af­ter there were no re­port­ed pos­i­tive cas­es on the is­land for 30 con­sec­u­tive days.

Ac­cord­ing to the health di­vi­sion, as of March 9, there are four ac­tive COVID cas­es in To­ba­go.
