COVID-19 Outbreaks at Three Sites Where Rotational Workers are Present

The Department of Health and Community Services is advising of COVID-19 outbreaks at three locations where rotational workers are present.

COVID-19 outbreaks have been reported at Hope Bay Gold Mine in Nunavut, Methanex Methanol Plant in Alberta, and Syncrude Canada Aurora Mine Site in Alberta.

Rotational workers from any of those sites who have returned to the province in the last 14 days must self-isolate away from household members and call 811 to arrange for testing. These workers must now complete the full 14-day self-isolation period, regardless of test result.
