PHSD Reports New COVID-19 Cases, Northern Sudbury District Rising

More COVID-19 cases have been confirmed in the region.

In its latest report, Public Health Sudbury and Districts reports 84 new cases - 70 in Greater Sudbury, eight in the broader Sudbury District, and six in the Manitoulin District - pushing known "active" cases up to 358, with 69 in hospital.

The number of cases in the northern Sudbury District (which includes Chapleau, Cartier, Foleyet, Gogama, and neighbouring First Nations) continues to jump, rising from ten to fourteen.

The health unit's holding vaccination clinics at its Chapleau office Wednesday and Thursday, by appointment only - book through the provincial system or call the health unit.

North Algoma's moved to appointments rather than clinics - in Wawa, call the local Algoma Public Health office; in Dubreuilville, the Dubreuilville Medical Centre; in White River, the Northern Neighbours Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic.
