Nunavik declares two more cases of COVID-19
UPDATED: Two new positive cases of COVID-19 in Nunavik have been confirmed in Puvirnituq, says the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services. There have now been seven confirmed cases in this Quebec region and six in the Hudson Bay community of about 1,900. The health board made two separate announcements about the new cases in Puvirnituq, one on Friday and a second one late Saturday evening. One is a patient at the Inuulitsivik hospital in Puvirnituq, shown here, the health board said on April 10. The other “is in isolation at home and is doing fine. Close family members were already in isolation before the case was confirmed,” the health board said on April 11. Nunavik remains under a lockdown. More to come later on nunatsiaq.com. (File photo)
Nothing in kuujjuaq
Theres nothing yet in akulivik.
The real brave people in this is the hospital, doctors nurses and all those staff that are in front on the front lines, appreciate that, please. Now, I seen a photo of Canadian Rangers, standing less than 2 meters away from each other, being named as the brave, that’s going to save lives. You know , I appreciate the rangers, but I’m concerned about them standing close to each other, ready to venture out on the land to cabins and tents, to educate people about the danger of covid -19, all the while traveling and interacting with a potential to bring the virus with them on their mission to save lives. The Rangers would be more useful, patrolling at night, with the amount of traffic in kuujjuaq after the 9 o’clock curfew. Don’t let your guard down, and be vigilant in your own safety, and expose our weak areas of potential to spread the disease.
