People should not be going in big crowds none of this will be happening
Lol
You on the toilet?
Sault I’m pretty sure
Who cares the aph thrives on fear mongering at this point its irrelevant
The number of reported cases is irrelevant. Hospitalisations and deaths are the only important numbers. In fact, now is the best time for as many as people as possible to contract a virus which is inevitable to encounter. Outdoor activities, sunshine, fresh air are far better environments to defend against the effects of illness.
When lying public health officials continue to warn of second waves, they never define these realities, or the fact that all previous lockdown measures have only offset the outbreak to a later time when we are once again cooped up in stale and enclosed quarters.
Lol grow a pair Cadamuro Montagna
APH in bed with WHO
One new case 22 positive 21 recovered
Wait is this 18 new cases in SSM? Or ? It’s confusing to me.
yes the 18 is ssm and area, plus 3 in an LTC (Mapleview) which gives ssm 21 total…the site is not updated for the 22nd case yet. It should be by tomorrow as they are slow at updating it
Wrong. It was 17 in SSM and area, plus 1 in East Algoma and 3 in Elliot Lake. That is what totals 21. The 3 in Mapleview are included in the 17 SSM number. The new case will be listed shortly as to which region
This is correct and new case is Sault area!
April Lynn thanks for clarifying, that’s crazy increase based on our previous numbers, I have heard that there are southerners migrating up here to go to their cottages. Hopefully that’s not the cause.
STAY SAFE
Maarit Steinwedel it’s not 18 new cases. There is one new case today. All others are considered resolved
April Foster – sheesh I thought you meant 18 new today.
Maarit Steinwedel I’m not the same April lol
April Foster oh don’t confuse me even more! Lol
Maarit Steinwedel the sault has 18… elliot lake had 3 and central algoma had 1 which makes 22 in the Algoma region…plus 21 resolved with one unresolved case!!!
Awesome
652 tests still pending results
Kathy Huyck yes they started testing places like the Great Northern Retirement Home this week ..so that’s new & will increase the testing numbers!!!
Wtf. Nooooooo! Stop visiting other areas people, stop traveling!
Who freaking cares
Shawn Cadamuro 🤡
Shut everything down lol
Dennis Porter lol what about the cat house
Ask your wife , wouldn’t she be out of a job ?
Another “Sault Ste. Marie & Area” case. From 17 to 18 now. Stay safe peeps!!
Shut up there is no virus
A.J. Sarah wth you mean there is no virus. Ppl are dieing so don’t say there is no virus.
Glenna do you know anyone with covid or who’s died because of covid? I’ll wait ………..
A.J. Sarah no i don’t but what about all the ppl in those nursing homes that have died. We still have to be careful.
Glenna no one knows anyone who has it or is dead from it. My point exactly. You’ve been brainwashed. Sanitize your brain and attitude lady.
The normal flu kills people in the nursing home. It dont need to be covid
A.J. Sarah I know someone that’s died from it! My cousin who was 16! An otherwise super healthy child.😥
Alicia apparently died from it, I would ask for an autopsy report.
A.J. Sarah yeah they did one that’s how we know. For 8 weeks no one had a clue what happened because all she had was a minor “cold”
Alicia 🙄 I bet.
A.J. Sarah yeah I imagine they lied to her grieving parents about their findings …makes perfect sense🙄
Alicia the government lies all the time 🐑
A.J. Sarah
I moved away from the Sault and now I’m in Kingsville about 40 minutes from Windsor..
I know people who had it and have died from it .. and not in a nursing home .. now we have had 2 migrant workers one in his 30’s and the other gentleman 23 healthy and passed away this week .. many now are testing positive so it’s real ..
Christine 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Just because i dont know anyone who’s died from it or has had it doesnt mean that no one else has been impacted by it. Were very lucky to have taken the precautions we did to lessen the outbreak and should continue to take those precautions.
Alicia Jayne Taylor where did your cousin live
A.J. Sarah yes I do!
Alicia Jayne Taylor sorry for your loss. ❤
A.J. Sarah oh wow. Youre pretty ingnorant and insensitive eh. Just because algoma only has a handful of cases, doesnt mean its not a very real and life threatening situation. Your disbelief though valid, may be seen as extremely harmful and certainly invalidating. Your experience does not trump those who are living the very real and isolating situation.
this is in the sault. if you go on their website and look at the locations it tells you…sault and area 21 cases…headline says case #22 ..the sault and area now has 22 confirmed cases, with 1 being active ( which is this case) all others have resolved
April Lynn i think it’s in the Sault April.
21 cases is all of Algoma this is the 18th case here if it is actually in the Sault
Dave Abernot you are incorrect. the 18 does not include the 3 from Mapleview as the fall under their own category
April Lynn
Plus the one today is 22…wherever that one is located
Dave Abernot like I said its in the sault as we are at 18 not 17
the numbers for the other algoma areas have not changed in weeks
21 of those 22 are resolved
Covidians are a cult. Stay afraid, stay very afraid!!
Shenanigans!
We don’t want to know what street or the name but at least give us the town
Bill Grieve it says the sault if you read the article
Erika Where in the article does it says its in the city ?
Bill Grieve I meant the link. (The blue part)
Erika oh thanks I didn’t click on that ..
cause the sault went from 17 to 18 cases now so its here
Do not believe anything APH puts out
Frank Montagna called it! 🎯
Erika Anneli if you look back this is is so noticeable and like clockwork it’s disgusting actually
Frank Montagna lottery numbers please.
Wow predicting another case during a pandemic. Shocking
Jennifer Obreene just well timed and I’m not a conspiracy nut but it’s quite convenient lol
Is it in the Sault?
Debbie Tremonte yes i think it is
Nothing is opened yet cant blame it on that
Karen Williams everything is reopening! Lots within the past two weeks
Lmaoooo I literally said this was going to happen
Very confusing as to details but thanks for the update. Why is everything a big secret don’t need a name but why panic all of Algoma if it’s not necessary?
People get carried away,on issues,they watch to much news,and listen to the world and not there hearts bro 💜😎✌
