HALIFAX -- There are three new cases of COVID-19 in New Brunswick -- all linked to the cluster in Campbellton -- and after successfully flattening the curve, the province's chief medical officer of health told people to brace for an influx of new cases.

"I would expect based on the contact tracing and the testing that we are doing, we will see more cases," Dr. Jennifer Russell said Thursday afternoon during a news conference in Fredericton.

“This is serious, like I don’t see this under control whatsoever,” says Anglehart-Paulin.
