Dr. Ronan Glynn, Acting Health Department Medical Director, tonight urged people to take action to help break the chains of transmission.

“The cases we are reporting today were seeded in the last week.

“This virus is transmitted from person to person. We now have a collective task across the country to break the chains of transmission and stop the spread of this virus.

“Plan to see half as many people this week as last week. When you meet up, do so safely – keep your distance, wear a face cover if applicable, and wash your hands.

“Every individual action we take to interrupt the transmission of this disease keeps us and our families safe.”
