    22 people in hospital on P.E.I. with COVID-19
    Province has changed to weekly reporting of COVID-19 numbers

    Prince Edward Island reported 22 people in hospital with COVID-19 — 12 admitted due to the virus and 10 admitted for other reasons who tested positive — in an update released Tuesday.

    One person is in intensive care, the province said in the first of what will now be weekly COVID updates on Tuesdays.

    In the same release, P.E.I. reported 2,038 cases of COVID-19 confirmed by the provincial testing system since the province last updated numbers on March 16.

    P.E.I.'s testing capacity became overwhelmed two weeks ago, resulting in changes to testing, which affected the number of positive cases being reported. Any close contact of a positive case who develops symptoms no longer needs to be tested at a clinic, but can assume they are positive. Close contacts include family members, kids at child-care, or a friend who slept over.

    On average, there have been 342 lab-confirmed new cases per day over the last seven days, almost matching the rate reported last week, but given the reduced requirements for testing it's likely not an accurate reflection of COVID-19 spread on the Island...
