Coronavirus: Nova Scotia’s top doctor expresses concern over community transmission
Description
February 24, 2021
Nova Scotia's chief medical officer of health Dr. Robert Strang on Wednesday reported three new cases of COVID-19 and said he's becoming concerned of community transmission. He said many of those testing positive recently have been socializing more with a "broad range" of close contacts and while they are mainly staying within the 10-person gathering limit, they are still gathering with different groups of people outside their regular bubble.
