Guam - Department of Public Works director Glenn Leon Guerrero confirms tuberculosis testing began this morning on bus drivers identified as close contacts with another bus driver that recently passed away. Although that bus driver died, she also has existing medical conditions.
It's estimated that in total 2,000 students from northern schools, DPW bus drivers and those who served on two separate grand jury panels at the superior court that may have had close contact with the bus driver will have to be screened. Those screening are taking place this month.
