Del Mar College received information that two students have tested positive for COVID-19. The two students are in different degree programs and the cases are not related. Both students were immediately instructed to self-isolate. As a result of the positive cases, 37 additional students and four employees who were in close-contact with the individuals have been asked to self-isolate.
