Health Unit issues final COVID-19 update

With COVID-19 numbers weaning locally in recent weeks, the Windsor Essex County Health Unit has put a halt to their once-daily updates on COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths.

Since the onset of the pandemic in the spring of 2020, the Health Unit provided daily updates to local media outlets in order to keep the public aware of efforts to fight the virus.

In recent weeks, the updates were reduced to twice a week.

On Thursday, May 26, the health unit sent out its final email update.

COVID-19 numbers and statistics, including vaccine numbers, will still be available under ‘Local Data’ on the health unit’s website at www. wechu.org.
