PHSD Reports New COVID-19 Cases, Including in Northern Sudbury District

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

Public Health Sudbury and Districts is reporting 65 since Monday - 50 in Greater Sudbury, seven in the broader Sudbury District, and four in the Manitoulin District - pushing the number of known "active" cases up to 129, with 21 in hospital.

The "active" cases include eight in the northern Sudbury District - which includes Chapleau, Cartier, Foleyet, Gogama, and neighbouring First Nations - up slightly from the seven reported Monday.

The health unit doesn't specify community within the region, though Township of Chapleau last week closed its Recreation Centre after staff tested positive for COVID after the Canada Day and Chapleau High School reunion weekend.
