New Brunswick revealed a new system on Friday that officials hope will allow residents a chance to socialize and interact with individuals outside their immediate household as the coronavirus crisis continues.
The two-household bubble system is one of the first steps taken in the province to loosen restrictions meant to stop the spread of COVID-19 in New Brunswick.
Until now, New Brunswickers were supposed to self-isolate and only interact with members of their immediate household. But under the new system households may now choose to spend time with one other household, assuming that both households agree to the arrangement.
