Public Health reported no new cases of COVID-19 on Tuesday and reviewed the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases reported in New Brunswick.
Two previously reported cases have been removed from the total number of confirmed cases in New Brunswick because those two people live in another jurisdiction, where they will be counted. These cases were originally reported in District 3 (the Fredericton area).
As of yesterday, one person has recovered and there are 15 active cases. Four patients have been hospitalized in New Brunswick.
About 41.6% of New Brunswick’s residents age 12 and older have been fully immunized, and 78.5% have received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
The county government has also launched a series of mobile clinics for people who have not yet received their first or second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
The first clinics are held this week in the following locations:
- Bucketville Leisure Center – 1086, Avenue du Parc, in Bucketville, Wednesday, July 7 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
- St Andrews Town Hall – 212 Water Street, St Andrews, Thursday, July 8 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
- Bowlarama – 2020 St Peter Street, Bathurst, Thursday, July 8 from 10am-4pm.
- Fundy Arena – 6 Arena Street, Blacks Harbor, Friday, July 9, 9:30 a.m.-4 p.m.
- Bowlarama-476, chemin Gauvin, in Dieppe, Saturday 10 July from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Persons attending the mobile immunization clinic are required to bring their health card, their immunization record if receiving a second dose, and a signed consent form. These clinics will administer the Moderna vaccine, which can be used safely and effectively for the first as well as the second dose.
