One local COVID-19 patient released from hospital, another case resolved

The North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit has provided its latest update of the state of COVID-19 cases in the area.

There have been changes to two of the confirmed positive cases, as there are now five cases listed as “resolved,” as opposed to four yesterday.

A female in her 60s hospitalized after travelling to Florida has been discharged and is self-isolating at home. The newly resolved patient is a man in his 60s who also travelled to Florida. One patient, a female in her 80s — and the most recent reported case — is still being treated in the hospital.

The Health Unit reports five of the seven confirmed cases are in the District of Nipissing, with two in the District of Parry Sound. To date, 466 tests have been administered.
