(Government of Newfoundland and Labrador)Newfoundland and Labrador is starting the month of June with no new cases of COVID-19, the fourth day in a row with zero. The province's case total stands at 261 with 255 people having recovered from the virus, the provincial government announced Monday at a briefing. There are currently three active cases of the virus, with one person in hospital. "The purpose of this expansion is to allow each of us to have more social connection while keeping our risk for COVID-19 as low as possible," Fitzgerald said. Asked if the provincial government will use another 28-day assessment period before moving from Level 3 to Level 2, Fitzgerald said it's too soon to tell.
