How well has Manitoba controlled the spread of #COVID19 so far?

Nine active cases means that right now, only one in every 153,111 Manitobans have the disease.

That’s like one case for every Guelph or every Moncton.

Or one case in all of P.E.I.

[Bartley Kives @bkives]

Roussin asked how many more cases or deaths would spark renewed restrictions.

Does not say, but Manitoba does have ability to renew restrictions.

Roussin: Manitoba is in fact looking at contact-tracing apps and may use them if Manitobans find them acceptable.

Will hire more contact-tracing staff as the need arises: In other words, if there are more cases.
