in #news3 years ago (edited)

Minnesota health officials reported Saturday that the state has now surpassed 300,000 COVID-19 cases and 3,500 deaths from the pandemic.

Saturday’s update included two days’ worth of data, in the wake of the Thanksgiving holiday. That prompted the largest case increase the state has seen in a single update — 9,040 cases — though again, that's two days' worth of data.

The state said 45 more COVID-19 deaths were reported over the previous two days — a sharp decline from the single-day record of 101 deaths in the previous update.

As of today, Nov. 28, Nova Scotia has 125 active cases of COVID-19. Fourteen new cases are being reported today.

Twelve cases are in Central Zone, one is in Western Zone and one in Northern Zone.

"Black Friday weekend usually draws crowds from across the province to the Halifax area to shop, but that must change this year," said Premier Stephen McNeil. "I want to remind all Nova Scotians that we are asking you to avoid non-essential travel in and out of western and central HRM and parts of Hants County. If you are doing some shopping this weekend, it's best to stay close to home and buy local. You'll be supporting the businesspeople in your community and doing your part to slow the spread of COVID-19."

Nova Scotia Health Authority's labs completed 3,644 Nova Scotia tests on Nov. 27.

There were 670 tests administered at the rapid-testing pop-up site in Dartmouth yesterday and three positive results. The individuals were directed to self-isolate and have been referred for a standard test.

Since Oct. 1, Nova Scotia has had 42,989 negative test results, 190 positive COVID-19 cases and no deaths. No one is currently in hospital. Cases range in age from under 10 to over 70. Sixty-five cases are now resolved. Cumulative cases may change as data is updated in Panorama.

"A few days ago, we introduced new restrictions in Halifax and Hants County. I know it's not easy, but it will allow us to slow the spread of COVID-19," said Dr. Robert Strang, Nova Scotia's chief medical officer of health. "The retail sector and restaurant and bar owners have all stepped up and adapted to ensure they continue to follow all public health measures. Now it is up to Nova Scotians to ensure they are doing their part to limit the spread of COVID-19."
