According to a release from the province, eight of the new cases are located in the province's Central Zone - six of these cases are close contacts of previously reported cases and two remain under investigation.
"I'm pleased to see our cases trending downward and Nova Scotians should be proud of their efforts," said Premier Iain Rankin in a release. "But just because we are seeing fewer cases does not mean we can disregard the public health measures. We are in a good position as we enter Phase 1 of our reopening plan tomorrow. Let's continue do our part by following the public health protocols and getting tested for COVID-19.
The province says 91 previously reported cases are now considered resolved, with the total number of active cases dropping to 369, the lowest number of active cases reported in the province since April 26. Effective Tuesday, Nova Scotians can travel throughout the entire province. Previously, residents were required to stay within their municipality.
There have been 5,579 cumulative COVID-19 cases in Nova Scotia. Of those, 5,125 people have recovered, and 85 have died due to COVID-19. There are cases confirmed across the province, but most have been identified in the Central zone, which contains the Halifax Regional Municipality.
“Cases” mean shit.
