New Brunswick Public Health is reporting two new cases of COVID-19 on Thursday in two different regions. Four previously reported cases are now considered resolved, dropping the active number of cases to 44. Thursday's new cases involve: an individual 20-29 in Zone 1 (Moncton region); and an individual 50-59 in Zone 6 (Bathurst region). Both cases are self-isolating and under investigation. “We are seeing more travel-related cases, which means it remains very important to keep your number of close contacts low and follow strict self-isolation guidelines for out-of-province travellers, especially during this holiday period,” said Dr. Jennifer Russell, chief medical officer of health. “We still have a long way to go and limiting your contacts will reduce the spread of infections so we can avoid a surge of new cases in January.”
