The Northwestern Health Unit on Wednesday confirmed the case is a close contact of a known case and was already self-isolating.

“Although daily connection was already being made with this individual as a contact, further in-depth investigation is underway to verify that all contacts are identified and are self-isolating as well,” an NWHU spokesperson said in an email.

The latest case, the second in Kenora, brings the regional total to 16.
