The Kingston region has two new active cases of the novel coronavirus, according to Dr. Kieran Moore, medical officer of health for the region.
In a tweet put out Friday afternoon, KFL&A Public Health said a man and a woman in their 20s have tested positive for COVID-19 after travelling outside of the Kingston region.
Both are currently self-isolating. Moore called the two new cases “low-risk” for the community.
