Jun. 16—Four staff workers at the Thurston County Correctional Facility have tested positive for COVID-19 in the latest outbreak at the jail, according to Public Health and Social Services.

This is the third outbreak at the facility since August 2020. PHSS started testing all employees over the weekend after learning one staff member had tested positive on June 10, according to county spokesperson Magen Johnson. Two additional staff members tested positive on June 11 and a fourth on Monday, Johnson wrote.

"Case investigations and contact tracing is underway for these cases," Johnson wrote.

PHSS has started testing the incarcerated population, according to Johnson. Incarcerated individuals who may have been exposed will be quarantined and those who test positive or experience symptoms will be held in isolation, she wrote.
