COVID-19 case found at NMC during voluntary quarantine

TRAVERSE CITY — Today NMC learned that a Great Lakes Maritime Academy cadet tested positive for COVID-19 while in self-quarantine in NMC housing ahead of a planned training cruise.

The cadet is one of 10 cadets who began a self-quarantine July 6 in NMC’s East Hall. The cadets took the COVID-19 test on July 10 and received the results today. The cadet who tested positive is asymptomatic and is now in isolation. NMC is working closely with the Grand Traverse County Health Department while it conducts its case investigation and contact tracing to determine potential spread. Because the cadets were already in a voluntary self-quarantine, the GTCHD has not identified any community exposure with this case at this time.
