Northern Health is flagging another private school in Prince George for COVID-19 exposure. 

The authority says those in the Cedars Christian School community could have come into contact with someone who tested positive for the virus. 

The dates listed are Dec. 14-16 with the self-monitoring window set to end tomorrow (Dec. 30).

Students in Prince George are still on winter break until Jan. 4.

Northern Health's school-exposure section explains students should still go to school "if you do not receive a phone call or letter from Public Health," but you're also encouraged to monitor symptoms daily.

  • Contact tracing is initiated to determine how the individual was infected and who they were in close contact with
  • We identify and notify close contacts who may be at an increased risk, and advise them to self-isolate and monitor for symptoms for 14 days
  • Only Public Health can determine who is a close contact
    • Learning groups, friends or other connections may not be determined to be a close contact
  • Public Health staff works closely with the school and school district throughout the case and contact management process to maintain close communication with the school community
