CHARLOTTETOWN – Recoveries outpaced new cases of COVID-19 in Prince Edward Island today by a margin of almost two to one.
Chief public health officer Dr. Heather Morrison reported 215 new cases of the virus and 417 new recoveries.
There are 17 people in hospital with COVID-19 — unchanged from Thursday.
Morrison said two people are in intensive care, and one other person is in hospital for another reason but has also tested positive for COVID-19.
Officials reported that an outbreak at the Miscouche Villa long-term care home has been declared over, but there are still seven long-term care facilities with ongoing outbreaks.
There is also an outbreak at the Prince County Hospital, while 22 early learning and child care centres have reported cases.
