Algoma Public Health's reporting another COVID-19 case.
The health unit is giving few details about its 26th confirmed case, except the person's been self-isolating since they were tested Monday and close contacts have been notified.
It's unknown how the person was exposed, considered evidence of ongoing community spread in Sault Ste. Marie and area and/or southern Ontario, though the health unit warns community spread's likely throughout Algoma and everyone should continue practicing physical distancing since any close contact could be a possible exposure.
This comes as the health unit's reporting its 25th case - confirmed last Thursday - is now "resolved", meaning this new case is the only active one for the health unit, though it is awaiting the results of 1450 tests.
Meanwhile, the Porcupine Health Unit has a single active case, reported July 9th - the 68th case for the health unit, which has seen eight deaths linked to COVID-19 - while the neighbouring Thunder Bay District Health Unit also has a single "active" case - it has reported 92 so far, with one death.
Public Health Sudbury and Districts has not reported a case since June 22nd, with all 67 of its reported cases considered "resolved", including 2 deaths.
