SA国际影视传媒淚t appears weSA国际影视传媒檙e coming out of a period of outbreak,SA国际影视传媒� said Dr. Kami Kandola, the NWTSA国际影视传媒檚 chief public health officer (CPHO) on Wednesday.

With the continued decrease of active Covid-19 cases SA国际影视传媒� 31 active infections in Yellowknife and 87 across the territory as of Tuesday SA国际影视传媒� things seem to be moving toward a gradual return to the time frame before the recent NWT outbreak.

Yellowknife, Dettah, and Ndil谦SA国际影视传媒檚 temporary restrictions were lifted after Oct. 22

Hay River and KSA国际影视传媒檃tlSA国际影视传媒檕deeche First Nation could see an end to their temporary restrictions at 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, the CPHO recently announced.

As well, the temporary restrictions for Behchok谦虁 look to be on track to end Monday.

However, moving away from temporary restrictions means switching to existing territorial gathering orders of 25 people indoors and 50 people outdoors, which are expected to remain in place throughout the winter season, unless exemptions are granted.

SA国际影视传媒淭he pandemic is not over,SA国际影视传媒� said Kandola. SA国际影视传媒淎s winter approaches, more and more of us will be moved indoors and so the risk increases.SA国际影视传媒�

Despite the easing of restrictions, there was also attention brought to the 11 lives lost during the course of the outbreak.

SA国际影视传媒淲e continue to keep these people, and their loved ones, in our heart,SA国际影视传媒� said Kandola.

On top of this, the CPHO reaffirmed the severity of the Delta variant and that the Covid vaccine continues to be a SA国际影视传媒渟afe and effective measure.SA国际影视传媒�

Kandola said the vaccination of NWT children ages five to 11 is getting closer as pharmaceutical company Pfizer made a recent submission to Health Canada for approval of vaccine usage on children.

SA国际影视传媒淗ealth Canada issued a public release at the end of last week saying that they will come back with decision any time between middle of November to end of November,SA国际影视传媒� she said.

Territorial medical director Dr. AnneMarie Pegg said Stanton Territorial Hospital has been rescheduling surgeries as normal SA国际影视传媒� while also working towards in-person appointments SA国际影视传媒� and hopes the situation in Alberta will improve soon for assistance with patients awaiting operations.

SA国际影视传媒淲eSA国际影视传媒檙e hoping that as they emerge from their situation of difficulty down there, that theySA国际影视传媒檙e able to better respond and better get back on track with some of the backlogged surgeries,SA国际影视传媒� said Pegg.

Kandola also addressed some City of Yellowknife councillors opposition to introducing proof of vaccination at municipal facilities.

SA国际影视传媒淚 didnSA国际影视传媒檛 follow the whole city council dialogue,SA国际影视传媒� Kandola acknowledged. SA国际影视传媒淲hat I can say is that the proof of vaccination is an option for people to use to increase their capacity.

SA国际影视传媒淲e have a territorial gathering order, which is 25 people indoors and 50 outdoors. Then there are some high-risk activities that need to have their own exposure plan submitted.SA国际影视传媒�
