Another COVID-19 death's been confirmed in the region.
Public Health Sudbury and Districts is reporting is 204th - the 177th in Greater Sudbury - it last reported a death on Friday.
The health unit's also reporting 52 new cases since Monday - 44 in Greater Sudbury, three in the broader Sudbury District, and five in the Manitoulin District - pushing known "active" cases up slightly, to 197 - three in the northern Sudbury District (which includes Chapleau, Cartier, Foleyet, Gogama, and neighbouring First Nations), up slightly from Monday - with 53 cases in hospital, three in ICUs.
It's next holding an "appointment only" COVID vaccination clinic at its Chapleau office next Thursday, March 9th.
