It looks like Marine Atlantic has a Covid-19 exposure on August 19th, and those who were on deck 7 and in the seating area are asked to get tested immediately. So if you were aboard the MV Blue Puttees when it crossed over from North Sydney to Port aux Basques on the 19th for the night crossing, go get that test.

A news release was put out today after the department said a traveller has tested positive for the virus, and there is a possibility that other passengers may have been exposed to Covid-19. Hopefully this is not the case, but we’re glad they caught it and notified everyone promptly.

Stay safe out there and if you think you need to get tested, you can dial 811 or click here.
