The local health unit says the District of Parry Sound is seeing a spike in community transmission of COVID-19.
In the health unit’s weekly update, Public Health Physician Dr. Carol Zimbalatti said whether this leads to a longer local wave is up to residents.
“Yes, we are seeing more community transmission in Parry Sound District than we are elsewhere but it is possible that we can nip that in the bud with the appropriate measures,” Zimbalatti said.

Long Beach rolls out Phase 2 of COVID-19 vaccine plan
Long Beach is now in the second phase of its COVID-19 vaccine rollout
LONG BEACH, Calif. -
Long Beach is now in the second phase of its COVID-19 vaccine rollout, giving doses to high-risk city workers Thursday and Friday, with senior citizens starting this weekend.
With its own health care department, Mayor Robert Garcia says they’re able to use guidance from the state and make decisions more quickly and smoothly than sometimes larger cities are able to. Too bad you can’t see my big smile behind this mask, said Long Beach Emergency Director Reggie Harrison with a laugh, as Public Health Physician Dr. Sarah Mohtedi gave him the vaccine.
