BREAKING: 3 new presumptive positive cases of COVID-19 in N.L. since yesterday, says Dr. Janice Fitzgerald
All three cases are women in the Eastern Health region.

The province now has a total of 9 cases — 3 confirmed and 6 presumptive positive.
"We are at the beginning of this in Newfoundland and Labrador," Dr. Janice Fitzgerald said.
The Provincial portion of student loans payments are suspended until September 30, Dwight Ball said.
"Time is now to influence how quickly numbers increase. Distancing is crucial." Health Minister John Haggie said.
Regulations could be in place until Canada Day, according to John Haggie.
Ball said the House of Assembly will meet next Thursday to bring forward a loan bill, and are working with the federal government.
Ball says all cases that have been recognized are isolating at home. There are no cases where isolation is taking place in a hospital.
Janice Fitzgerald said forecasting a 'peak' in the number of cases is difficult. She emphasizes the importance of staying at home to flatten the curve.
Ball says a full-on state of emergency is not out of the question.

"We will do whatever it takes...we will not hesitate."
