WINNIPEG -- For a year now, Dr. Brent Roussin has calmly provided updates on COVID-19 in Manitoba. Roussin became the Chief Provincial Public Health Officer in June 2019 -- just months before the pandemic began. "My first day on the job I had to do a media scrum because of an infectious case of measles on an international flight and I was a bit nervous. My first day on the job, first media scrum, and when that was over, I thought to myself, 'I'm glad I'm not going to have to do that very much,'" said Roussin. Day in and day out, Roussin has given updates with a straightforward delivery, always reminding Manitobans to "focus on the fundamentals."
