The Department of Health said it has no data on how many of the more than 300 recovered patients are still dealing with health issues. Dr. France Desrosiers, the vice-president of medical services at the Vitalité health network, said in a statement it "does not keep track of long-term health outcomes of patients who have recovered from COVID-19." CBC News first asked the Department of Health for data on recovered COVID-19 patients in June. Its role is tracing and containing the spread of the disease, a task that's distinct from measuring impacts in recovered patients. As of Monday morning, 339 New Brunswickers had recovered from COVID-19, according to Public Health.
