Local COVID Rates On The Rise

COVID-19 numbers are going up across the region.

The Northwestern Health Unit has released its weekly update.

The seven day test positivity rate is now at 18.8%.

That’s up from 15.1% last week.

The number of high-risk cases is also on the rise with 188.

That has increased from 151.

This number is lower than the “real” number due to the fact many people are not eligible for PCR testing and test positive on Rapid Antigen tests at home and are not counted in the total.
