On Thursday March 26, 2020, Manitoba Public Health officials announced an additional probable case of COVID-19 has been identified in Winnipeg.
The latest case is a male in his 20s from Winnipeg and is related to a previously announced case.
As of Thursday 5606 tests for COVID-19 have been performed at the provincial laboratory.
Dr. Brent Roussin, Manitoba’s Chief Provincial Public Health Officer said “Staying home is the best way to protect yourself, the people around you and our community.”
Roussin reminded Manitobans that non-essential travel internationally or across Canada is strongly discouraged. All international travellers must self-isolate for 14 days upon their return to Canada. Those who fail to self-isolate upon return from international travel could face fines or penalties.
