Still no confirmed cases in the territory
Nunavut residents need to do their part to help reduce the spread of COVID-19 by keeping their distance from one another, says Premier Joe Savikataaq.
“This is a stressful, disruptive time for everyone, but it’s up all of us to limit the spread of COVID-19,” Savikataaq said during a daily update on the pandemic on Tuesday, March 17, in Iqaluit.
“It’s time to stay at home as much as possible when not at work, even if you’re feeling healthy.”
And if you have been tested for COVID-19, it is “imperative” that you stay home until your test result comes in, said Nunavut’s chief medical officer of health, Michael Patterson.
