More COVID-19 cases are being reported in the region.
Algoma Public Health's added five in Sault Ste. Marie - nearly all stemming from close contact with a known case - bringing the health unit's total to 545, with the number "active" ticking up slightly, to 58, including two in hospital.
Meanwhile, Public Health Sudbury and Districts added 53 cases since Friday - one in the Sudbury District, another in the Manitoulin District, the rest in Greater Sudbury - bringing the health unit's total to 2887, though the number "active" actually dropped, to 206.
Of those "active", one is in the northern part of the Sudbury District - which includes Chapleau, Foleyet, Gogama, and neighbouring First Nations - plus three in the western part of the district, one in the Manitoulin District, and the rest in Greater Sudbury.
It also reported 55 more confirmed or presumed to be variants of concern, bringing that count to 1543.
The health unit notes it has "appointment-only" vaccination clinics happening at its Chapleau office tomorrow, and at the Foleyet Nursing Station Thursday.
