(CNS): Health Minister Sabrina Turner said at Thursday’s press briefing that people who have tested positive for the SARS-CoV-2 virus who leave isolation before getting an official PCR exit test, regardless of how long they have been in quarantine, will be prosecuted.

Turner said that government has a list of all those in quarantine as

  • Kurt Busch picked up his first win for Michael Jordan’s 23XI Racing in Kansas.

  • Busch was debuting the Jumpan car, with a paint scheme based on the Air Jordan III.

  • After a lot of bad luck this season, co-owner Denny Hamlin was nearly brought to tears with the win.

Michael Jordan and the Jumpman logo are winners again, thanks to former NASCAR champion Kurt Busch.

Busch dominated the AdventHealth 400 race in Kansas, leading 82 laps after leading just nine laps in the first 12 races of the season. Busch passed Kyle Larson with eight to go after the defending champ, who struggled with his car all day, slid up and hit the wall for the umpteenth time in the race.

It marked Jordan’s second win as the owner of 23XI Racing and his first since Bubba Wallace’s rain-shortened win at
