Nova Scotia is reporting two new cases of COVID-19 today. There's been one patient recovered—their case closed in the province's vernacular—since yesterday, so the active case count is increasing by one to 41 active cases, the highest it's been in 2021. "One case is in Northern Zone and is related to travel outside of Atlantic Canada. The person is self-isolating, as required," the province says in its Friday C19 update. That's the Northern health zone's first case in April; zooming into the zone with our table below, it's in the Pictou health network, which is that area's first case since January 22; and it's nicely contained as a travel case.
