Yellowknife — June 25, 2021
The banner on the COVID-19 website has been updated to align with the targets outlined in the new Emerging Wisely 2021 plan.
In the updated banner, case numbers are still available, and vaccine doses have been replaced by percentages of fully and partially vaccinated residents. The number of completed, negative, and pending tests are no longer being displayed on the dashboard. Detailed information about cases, testing, wastewater testing, and vaccinations will continue to be available on the COVID-19 dashboard.
At the bottom of the banner a section has been added that links to the national COVID-19 case counts and vaccination coverage.
These changes align with the targets outlined in the new Emerging Wisely 2021 plan, which uses vaccination coverage and case counts as the key indicators for easing restrictions.
