No cases of omicron variant detected in Manitoba
CBC News · Posted: Dec 03, 2021 12:30 PM CT | Last Updated: 2 hours ago

Manitoba reports 147 new COVID-19 cases and four deaths on Friday.

The Southern and Winnipeg health regions have 75 per cent of the new cases, with 64 and 46, respectively, a news release from the province says...

...Three of the four new deaths were in the Winnipeg health region: a man in his 70s, a woman in her 80s and a woman in her 100s. The other death, a man in his 70s, was in the Prairie Mountain Health region.

The province also released more details about three deaths reported on its dashboard on Thursday. There are no COVID-19 news releases issued on Thursdays, so only the numbers were reported.

Two of the deaths reported Thursday were from Southern Health: a woman in her 70s linked to an outbreak at Salem Home long-term care home in Winkler, and a man in his 90s linked to an outbreak at Third Crossing Manor in Gladstone. The third death was a man in his 80s from the Prairie Mountain Health region.

There have now been 1,328 deaths from COVID-19 in Manitoba.

The five-day COVID-19 test positivity rate is 5.1 per cent provincially and 2.7 per cent in Winnipeg. Both of those numbers are unchanged from Thursday.

Of the 147 new cases on Friday, 95 are in people not fully vaccinated...

...There are 141 people in hospital with COVID-19, which is a decline from 147 on Thursday. That includes 23 in intensive care units, a drop of one from Thursday.

Among those hospitalized with active COVID-19, 51 per cent are unvaccinated and 44 per cent are fully vaccinated; five per cent are partly vaccinated.

When it comes to the most severe outcomes, however, the split is different. Of the patients being treated for active COVID-19 in intensive care units, 87.5 per cent are unvaccinated and 12.5 per cent are fully vaccinated...
