WINNIPEG — Manitoba’s chief public health officer says some people are still not getting the message about the need to stay home to slow the spread of COVID-19.
Dr. Brent Roussin says some stores are exceeding the 25 per cent capacity limit, parking lots are full, and one COVID-19 case on the weekend had 85 contacts.
It’s been two weeks since Manitoba forced bars and restaurants in the greater Winnipeg region to close.
That was followed last Thursday with a similar order for the rest of the province, which also required many non-essential stores to close as well.
Roussin is reporting 392 new cases and 10 additional deaths — numbers he says cannot continue.
He says hospitals are running at near-capacity, even as the province opens up new intensive care beds.
