To date, 87 members of the El Camino College community have tested positive for COVID-19. To honor the privacy rights afforded to medical patients, any identifying information about these individuals is considered confidential and will not be disclosed.

Areas these individuals are known to have visited before testing positive for COVID-19 are identified so they can undergo thorough disinfection.
