Another COVID Death Amid Dropping Numbers
Premier Tim Houston says, “COVID-19 is still here. It isn't going anywhere anytime soon, and it continues to take loved ones away from family and friends.”
The Premier made the comment with the announcement of another COVID related death in Nova Scotia, a man in his 90s from the Western Health Zone.
Houston said, “My thoughts are with everyone who is grieving. Let's prevent anyone else from going through this pain by getting fully vaccinated, staying home if you are sick and following public health measures.”
The update noted that 60 new cases were reported over the weekend, along with 88 recoveries. As a result, the active case count across the province dropped to 193 with 16 people are in hospital, including seven in ICU.
Once again there were no new cases reported from the East Cumberland Lodge in Pugwash where 32 residents and ten staff were infected.
