There are 4 new cases in the Atlantic Bubble today, 3 in NB and 1 in PEI; PEI also reports 1 recovery. The 1st new case in NB is an individual between 60 and 69 in Zone 7 (Miramichi region). The case is related to travel from outside the Atlantic bubble and the individual is self-isolating. The additional 2 new cases are:

  • an individual between 40 and 49 with a permanent address in Zone 3 (Fredericton region), who was staying in Ontario prior to the onset of symptoms, tested in that province and will remain there until recovered.
  • an individual between 60 and 69 in Zone 1 (Moncton region), related to travel from outside the Atlantic bubble and who is self-isolating.

In addition, a Quebec resident who works in Zone 5 (Campbellton region) of New Brunswick has tested positive and is now self-isolating and recovering in Quebec. Contact tracing is on-going to identify New Brunswickers who may have come into contact with this individual and who will need to self-monitor or be tested.

The new case in PEI involves a woman in her 20s who arrived to the Island on Sept. 20 from outside the country. The province says the woman came to PEI for work unrelated to the health-care sector and has been isolating since her arrival. This means there is 1 active case in PEI, 1 in NS, 6 in NB and 1 in NFLD, none known to be related to the Atlantic Bubble itself. In NS, 53/65 (82%) NS deaths are from Northwood and 57/65 (88%) are from long term care in general (11 different facilities have reported cases, none have an active case). Yesterday, 889 tests were completed with 0 new cases reported.
