Tataskweyak Cree Nation Leadership says the patient that tested positive for COVID-19 in the Gillam/Fox Lake District did have contact with a member of their community in Thompson.

 

In a Facebook post, TCN states that the member in question is currently self-isolating and awaiting test results.

 

At this time, both TCN Chief and Council and the pandemic team are encouraging members to stay home.

 

Masks are also mandatory in public spaces.

 

TCN says the curfew is still in effect, and parents and guardians are being asked to enforce it.

 

At this time, travel is being restricted from Gillam, Brandon, the South Western Health Region, Prairie Mountain Health Region, and Southern Health-Santé.
