The Thunder Bay District Health Unit's reporting 37 new cases in the Thunder Bay area and another three in unspecified "district communities" - fifteen stem from household contact and seventeen from "other close contact".

Despite the rise, the number of "active" cases has fallen to 406, with 39 in hospital, twelve in an ICU.

The Porcupine Health Unit isn't reporting any new cases, though it is warning of possible exposure on a pair of Air Canada flights on Monday, March 15th: AC0144 from Calgary to Toronto - rows 14 to 18 - and AC8289 from Toronto to Timmins - rows 8 to 12 - with those who were seated in those rows urged to self-isolate and contact their local health unit.
