APH Reports 24th COVID-19 Death

Algoma Public Health's reporting another death linked to COVID-19.

The health unit's 24th, it comes just three days after the health unit reported its 23rd and a week after its 22nd.

It's also reporting 55 new cases in the Sault Ste. Marie area; eleven in Central and East Algoma; and seven in North Algoma - which includes Wawa, Dubreuilville, White River, Michipicoten First Nation, and Missinabie Cree First Nation - while reducing the number reported for the Elliot Lake area by one, leaving the health unit with 589 known "active", including twenty in hospital - up from the previous day - plus one "non-resident case temporarily in Algoma", also in hospital.

Public Health Sudbury and Districts - meanwhile - reminds it's holding an "appointment only" vaccination clinic at the Chapleau and District Family Health Team tomorrow.
