A Winnipeg boy under the age of 10 has died from COVID-19, becoming the youngest person in Manitoba to lose their life to the illness. The grim updates come as Manitoba announces 487 new cases of the illness, its third-highest single-day increase to date. More than three-quarters of Manitoba's total COVID-19 deaths happened this month. Nearly two-thirds of the new cases announced on Saturday (307) are in the Winnipeg health region, while another one-fifth (104) are in the Southern Health region. The remaining cases are spread out across the Northern Health region (38), the Interlake-Eastern health region (23) and the Prairie Mountain Health region (15).
