It's been more than a week since a new case of COVID-19 has appeared in New Brunswick, which opens up as part of the Atlantic travel bubble on Friday. All three cases are in the Campbellton region, also known as Zone 5. When the Atlantic bubble begins Friday, people in the region will be able to travel to all four Atlantic provinces without having to self-isolate after crossing a provincial boundary. There have been 165 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in New Brunswick since March 11, when the first presumptive case was announced, and 160 people have recovered. Two people have died at a long-term care home in Atholville, after a cluster of cases broke out in the Campbellton region.
