An outbreak's been declared at a Sudbury long-term care home.
Public Health Sudbury and Districts says its 71st case, a Greater Sudbury woman in her 50s who tested positive on Saturday, is an employee of Extendicare Falconbridge, prompting the outbreak declaration for the facility - she was tested as part of routine surveillance testing of long-term care staff across the province.
The health unit further notes its 69th case, a Greater Sudbury woman in her 30s who tested positive on Thursday, was also an employee of the facility.
They're two of four active cases in Greater Sudbury, as two residents 19 or younger have tested positive in the last week.
The neighbouring Thunder Bay District Health Unit confirmed its 94th - and only active case - late Friday, a woman in her 30s in the Thunder Bay area while the Porcupine Health Unit has a single active case - its 70th - noted to be in isolation at Timmins and District Hospital.
Algoma Public Health's has no "active" cases at this time, though it is waiting on the results of more than 1000 tests.
