I'm on lunch break so I'll live-tweet today's NS covid-19 briefing that started six minutes ago at 1:30 as advertised.
Strang walked out. With a grim expression he noted that because of non-compliance with public health measures, they're bringing back the gallows on the waterfront.
McNeil is wearing a a military uniform with a sash for some reason. He's now demanding to be called 'The General'.

Strang intersects to say that the Yarmouth ferry will be used for central quarantine. McNeil grimaced at its mention.
Whoa, wild. Strang says they have a new covid test based on the balance of your humors. He adds that it doesn't work but that there's enough for everyone.
They're starting for real (or are they?!?) so I'll stop.

Of the 3 cases in NFLD, 1 was travel-related,1 is a close-contact of an existing case (there seems to be a cluster of cases in Grand Bank and I'm not sure why they're all interacting with one another), and the last 1 is still under investigation
All of the 5 new cases in NS are in the Halifax area. Two are close contacts of existing cases and three are still under investigation.

The province is introducing new restrictions to slow the spread of the virus, specifically in Halifax.

Today in the #AtlanticBubble

There were 10 new cases reported: 2 in Nova Scotia and 8 in New Brunswick.
The two cases in Nova Scotia are both related to a previous case. Public Health has just revealed that both of the new cases are students (one at Graham Creighton Junior High and Auburn Drive High.

These are the first students to test positive in NS since schools re-opened.
The two schools are within walking distance of each other, which makes me think that they're part of a household with an existing case, but that's just me speculating.

Today in the #AtlanticBubble

There were 7 new cases reported in the Bubble today: 3 in New Brunswick, and 2 each in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador.

Both of the new cases in NFLD are travel-related and isolating.
The three new cases in NB are each in separate zones: one each in Fredericton, Saint John, and Moncton. One is travel-related and the other two are still under investigation (from press releases I've seen, I'm still not clear how the origins are distributed by zone).
For the two new cases in NS, both are linked to existing cases (one is linked to the cluster in Clayton Park). Both are still under investigation, so it's possible we'll get some new exposure alerts tonight.
