Nova Scotia is reporting one new death connected to novel coronavirus on Thursday and no new cases. In a news release, the province said the death involved a man in his 70s with underlying medical conditions in the central zone.
He was not a resident of a long-term care home. “My thoughts are with those who are mourning the loss of a loved one today,” said Premier Stephen McNeil in a statement. “I recognize the public health measures make it difficult for families and friends to grieve. “We must remain vigilant and continue to support our neighbours as our province begins the work to recover from COVID-19.” The province is reporting three additional recoveries, bringing the total number of active cases to two.
