Two more Colorado K-12 schools, two Greek institutions report COVID-19 outbreak

Two more K-12 schools in Colorado have reported COVID-19 outbreaks, with some districts taking a total of five since the resumption of individual classes in August Gust.

Two brothers were also involved in the outbreak – including one that had previously had nine cases among its residents and guests in July.

The Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment has defined an outbreak because two or more cases are connected to the same place or event, in two weeks. If multiple students test positive on the first day of classes, the school will not explode.

The two recently reported two outbreaks in a fountain van in El Paso County. Two cases of staffing were reported at Goal High School, and two attendance cases were reported at Jordahal Elementary School. In schools, attendees mostly refer to students, although state health department data does not specifically list student cases.

A new outbreak also erupted in Denver with a primrose school, a private preschool at Lori. Two staff members and one attendee tested positive. An additional 17 outbreaks have occurred with childcare facilities across the state.

Without any new cases reported in the last three weeks, the three present epidemics at the school remained stable.

The only new spread of college-level in the last week was associated with the institutions of Greek life. The University of Colorado Boulder’s Soriti P. Beta Fee has reported nine confirmed or probable cases among its residents. The case is considered probable if the students have coronavirus-like symptoms but do not have a positive test.
