Elsewhere at UCLA, LA County public health officials say at least eight UCLA Football players have tested positive for the virus.
Late Wednesday afternoon there was an emailed statement from UCLA Athletics:
"Any positive COVID-19 test results within the UCLA Athletics population would be reported as part of the daily campus updates, which can be found here (please note: the number of positive cases listed is a cumulative total since March). There is no separate reporting for Athletics. As previously outlined, the protocol in our Return to Training Plan requires that all student-athletes be tested for COVID-19 and antibodies upon their return to campus. Those who travel back to campus by plane are required to self-quarantine for a period of seven days before reporting to athletic facilities for medical screening, while those who travel by personal vehicle are not required to quarantine prior to testing. Anyone who was to test positive for COVID-19 would immediately go into isolation for 10 days from the date of the test. Anyone deemed to have been in close contact with someone who tested positive would go into isolation for 14 days from the last date of contact. UCLA Athletics currently has no student-athletes in isolation."
LA County Public Health officials confirmed to KNX reporter Claudia Peschiutta Wednesday that there are no known hospitalizations or deaths associated with these three outbreaks.
