There has been a total of 2,756 cases in the province with 172 active and 89 per cent of test-positive cases now considered recovered.

Currently, there are 11 people in hospital with the virus, and of those, five are in ICU.

Doctor Henry says indoor based facilities with poor ventilation will continue to remain closed in most cases.
