Sark school will reopen as planned on Monday 6th September. This decision follows a meeting today of Public Health and Microbiology where all the results to date were considered. There have been no further cases of Group A Streptococcus confirmed and more than 70 tests have been completed so far.
The doctor will continue to test and treat people who have symptoms suggestive of this infection. Please follow the previous advice regarding careful hand washing particularly after coughing or sneezing and come for an appointment if you develop a fever, sore throat or rash.
Many thanks again for taking the time to keep updated on this issue.
Dr Peter Counsell
