APH Reports New COVID-19 Cases, 4 in North Algoma

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

Algoma Public Health's reporting 58 since last Tuesday - 35 in the Sault Ste. Marie area, ten in Central and East Algoma, nine in the Elliot Lake area, and four in North Algoma (which includes Wawa, Dubreuilville, White River, and the Michipicoten and Missinabie Cree First Nations) - pushing known "high risk active" cases up slightly, to 62, with eight in hospital, four in ICUs.

The neighbouring Public Health Sudbury and District is holding an appointment only COVID-19 vaccination clinic for those at least twelve years old at its Chapleau office tomorrow - 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.
