Another member of K-pop boy band The Boyz has tested positive for Covid-19.
They are in the US for “The Boyz World Tour: The B-Zone in USA” concert tour.

The agency said “we would like to inform you that The Boyz member Jacob has been additionally tested for COVID-19 and is concentrating on rest and treatment.” He has no special symptoms.

IST Entertainment also said The Boyz members Juyeon, Kevin and Q, who were announced to have Covid-19 last June 8, have now tested negative.
“The Boyz members Juyeon, Kevin and Q, who tested positive for Covid-19 during the tour in the US, have been informed that they have tested negative. The members are currently asymptomatic and are resting and continuously checking their health,” the agency said.
