For the first time in two months, Prince Edward Island has reported new cases of COVID-19.
“This is disappointing news, but we have said consistently that we need to be prepared for more cases, and we are,” said Prince Edward Island’s Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Heather Morrison.
The other two new positive cases involve two people in their 20s, who are believed to be connected, according to Morrison. “She did wear appropriate PPE while working, and does not provide direct personal care to residents. She left work as soon as she wasn’t feeling well,” said Morrison. Morrison also added that she’s been told none of the residents at Whisperwood Villa have any new symptoms of COVID-19.
