20 potential COVID-19 exposures (Sep 25 2021 report)

Nova Scotia Health Public Health is advising of potential exposures to COVID-19 at locations in Central and Western Zones, multiple transit routes and two flights. In addition to media releases, all potential exposure notifications are listed here: http://www.nshealth.ca/covid-exposures. As Nova Scotia moves into a stage of living with COVID-19 as we go about our daily activities, there will be changes in how Public Health communicates COVID-19 public exposures.
