Anyone who is identified as a contact for these cases will be notified directly.
On Wednesday, the Northwestern Health Unit announced a positive case in the Rainy River area and one in the Kenora area.
The Thunder Bay District Health Unit reported its first new case in about a week on Wednesday, and said the individual is self-isolating.
