Summary of the new cases over the last three days:
There were 8 new cases on Saturday, 7 on Sunday and one case on Monday. The total number of cases in the region is now 1813. That number is lower because sixteen “false positives” that occurred in the Rocher-Percé MRC have been discounted and removed from the region’s statistics.
