Manitoba is extending temporary COVID-19 public health orders by three days, announced the province's chief provincial public health officer Dr. Brent Roussin.

The province said Tuesday the restrictions, put in place to curb rising case numbers over the May long weekend, will be extended until Saturday. They were originally set to expire Wednesday.

The restrictions include a ban on gathering with people outside a household and allow for only one person from each household to go into a business, with some exceptions for single parents and those needing a caregiver.

Officials in Manitoba imposed new restrictions or offered support to existing and emerging COVID-19 hot spots on Monday while regions, where the pandemic appeared to be loosening its grip, continued to ease public health measures.


During the press conference, Premier Brian Pallister also urged Manitobans to get a COVID-19 vaccine and to follow public health measures.

Ottawa announced it would send health workers and other supports to the Prairie province, which is currently grappling with high positivity rates and overburdened intensive care units.
