Northern Health has flagged a Prince George high school for COVID-19 exposure for the third time. 

Prince George Secondary is being alerted of exposure from Dec. 1 to 2.

The secondary school's first notice was dated for Oct. 2 while the second event was listed for Nov. 18. 

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
