The government says two new cases of coronavirus are not in the community.
During a press briefing today, Chief Minister Howard Quayle says the government uses World Health Organisation definitions - which don't define the cases as being in the community.
But he says some cases have been transmitted between people on the Island.
Mr Quayle added a number of the nine current cases now detected here are part of a cluster, which has been traced to a single individual who came to the Island unknowingly carrying the disease.
