Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Janice Fitzgerald says they’re still a few days away before they can say we’re in the clear from the Easter weekend.
The province has reported no new cases of COVID-19 over the last three days. There have been 13 cases in total over the last week.
Dr. Fitzgerald says the average incubation period of the virus is about five or six days, so they expected to see some symptoms coming up by now.
However, she says it can be up to 14 days, so the numbers must remain low over the next few days before they can determine how closely the people of the province followed public health measures.
