No New Cases of COVID-19 in NL for 13 Days

The Premier says its “lucky number 13.”

As of yesterday, there are no new cases of COVID-19 in Newfoundland and Labrador, for the 13th consecutive day.

The total number of cases in the province stands at 260, with four active cases.

Three people remain in the hospital.

Premier Dwight Ball says difficult decisions have been made, but they have been made with the wellbeing of this province’s residents in mind.

To date, 10,841 people have been tested for COVID-19 in this province. That number does not include re-tests.

Of those, 7,904 people have been tested in the Eastern Health region, 966 in Central, 1,467 in Western, and 504 in Labrador-Grenfell Health.

Of the province’s 260 identified cases, 242 were identified in the Eastern Health region alone.
