I wanted to take this opportunity to express my gratitude towards our Chief Public Health Officer, Dr. Michael Patterson, and his health team for their tireless efforts to keep Nunavut safe during the COVID-19 pandemic in the past two years.
Good morning. We’ve just been made aware of another positive case of COVID-19, in Arviat. The whole Kivalliq region is going into lockdown as a precaution. This is a fast-moving situation, so please be patient with us.
Good afternoon. It’s been a hard weekend, and as you all know, we have 26 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Nunavut – six new cases in Arviat and two new cases in Rankin Inlet. My thoughts are with everyone recovering and those isolating.
