Public Health is reporting another death due to COVID-19 in the province on Saturday, the fourth in two days.

The death was an individual in their 70s in the Fredericton region.

"Our thoughts are with this person's family and friends and with everyone who has lost a loved one or has gotten sick due to COVID-19," Premier Blaine Higgs said in a statement posted to the province's website. 

"We all owe it to them to do our part to protect each other by please, if you can, getting vaccinated."

Public Health is reporting 61 new cases of COVID-19 in the province on Saturday.

There are new cases in every region of the province, the most located in the Edmundston region (18) and the Fredericton region (16).

As of Saturday's report, there were 580 active cases in the province. There are 184 in the Fredericton region.

There have been 3,768 confirmed cases of COVID-19 during the pandemic, with 3,134 recoveries and 53 deaths.

There are 32 people in hospital, 13 in intensive care.

State of emergency redux

After only 57 days in the green phase, New Brunswick has re-entered a state of emergency, with the highest COVID-19 active case count the province has seen during the pandemic.

Higgs announced the return of the state of emergency and mandatory order Friday afternoon.

He said the growing number of both cases and hospitalizations presents a "serious and imminent risk" to New Brunswickers.

"The situation is serious and we need people to take it seriously."

The new mandatory order includes the reintroduction of the family bubble with a steady 20 contacts.

This is in addition to other measures previously announced, like mandatory masks in indoor public spaces and providing proof of vaccination at most non-essential businesses.

The order will be implemented whenever COVID-19 hospitalizations reach 25. They will be rescinded whenever they go back down to 10.

More department closures

On Friday, the Horizon Health Network announced the temporary closure of the labour and birth unit of the Upper River Valley Hospital in Waterville.

The closure is expected to last until Tuesday at 7 a.m.

The network said the closure is being done to adjust staffing because of the increasing number of COVID-19 patients at the hospital.

Patients in labour are being directed to the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital in Fredericton.

COVID tests for New Brunswickers travelling to P.E.I.

Prince Edward Island has instituted new testing measures for anyone looking to travel to the island from New Brunswick.

People who have visited New Brunswick for 48 hours or less will have to be tested twice when they return to P.E.I., once on Day 4 and again on Day 8.

Anyone who travels to P.E.I. after being in New Brunswick for longer than 48 hours will have to test at an entry point and again on Day 4 and Day 8.

The new regulations came as P.E.I. warned residents against off-island travel.

What to do if you have a symptom

People concerned they might have COVID-19 can take a self-assessment test online.

Public Health says symptoms of the illness have included a fever above 38 C, a new or worsening cough, sore throat, runny nose, headache, a new onset of fatigue, and difficulty breathing.

In children, symptoms have also included purple markings on the fingers and toes.

People with one of those symptoms should stay at home, call 811 or their doctor and follow instructions.
