rules when it comes to COVID-19. While the numbers remain low for the province, McNeil said COVID is active in every region.
The department of Health and Wellness is expanding its asymptomatic testing across the province, with McNeil noting they finish the first round of vaccinations this weekend.
The premier also touched on the new strain of COVID appearing to show up in the UK. While he says it is concerning, McNeil also said it can serve as a reminder for everyone that we are not out of the woods yet.
