Manitoba health officials say seven more people have contracted the novel coronavirus, bringing the province’s total to 103.

“It is within our range of projections at this stage,” said Dr. Brent Roussin, the province’s chief public health officer. “This is within things that we were expecting.”

Manitoba currently has 103 probable and confirmed cases of COVID-19. One person has died. Three people are currently in hospital, two in ICU, and four people have recovered.

A staff member at Selkirk Regional Health Centre has tested positive for COVID-19, said Roussin.

“This individual worked in the health centre’s emergency department and medicine ward from March 19 to 23,” he said.
