Rapid covid-19 strip Test EMO, Ont. – The Northwest Health Unit has declared a COVID-19 outbreak at the Sturgeon Creek Alternative Program in Emo, Ont. In a release, the health unit said the outbreak, declared when two or more cases are found in a school and case and contact follow-up does not show probable links outside the school, will have an impact on all staff and students. The school at present is closed because of the spring break and the provincial mandate that schools be closed to in-person learning for two weeks beyond the break. The Northwest Health Unit earlier this week declared a COVID outbreak at Calvary Baptist Church in Emo, but did not say whether the two outbreaks are linked.
