Manitoba announced 431 new COVID-19 cases, and Wednesday's total of nine is the highest number of deaths reported in a single day in the province since the start of the pandemic. There have been more COVID-19-related deaths reported in Manitoba in the first 11 days of November than in the first seven months of the pandemic.
