Currently, P.E.I. has the lowest per capita instance of COVID-19 of any province in Canada, according to the province.
“While we watch the resurgence of cases throughout the world, and in other Canadian provinces, Morrison urged everyone to continue to follow the basics: handwashing, wearing masks, staying two metres apart from those not within your household,” the province said in a statement.
Since the pandemic began, P.E.I. has reported a total of 64 cases — all have been travel-related.
