It said in a statement this evening that the dead were men hospitalized respectively at the Western Regional Hospital in Belmopan and the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital in Belize City.

No further details were provided on their history or conditions prior to deaths.

From 81 samples processed today, just four new cases were reported, all in the village of Ladyville, Belize District.

We will continue to monitor developments.
