The Manitoba government is instituting two-weeks of remote learning for students in grades 7 through 12 following the holiday break in an effort to prevent COVID-19 cases.

The mandatory move to at-home learning for older students will start Jan. 4, and parents of students in Kindergarten to Grade 6 can also move their kids to remote learning over the same time period if they choose, Education Minister Kelvin Goertzen said Wednesday.

The press conference comes after provincial health officials said another 14 Manitobans with COVID-19 have died, but the province’s daily case numbers fell for the second-straight day Wednesday.

Manitoba’s chief public health officer Dr. Brent Roussin said 277 new cases of the virus had been identified across the province as of Wednesday morning. Health officials announced 283 new COVID-19 cases Tuesday and said a record-setting 16 more Manitobans with the virus had died.
