P.E.I. is imposing sweeping new public health measures after seven new cases of COVID-19 were announced over the weekend.
The Wendy's and A&W restaurants on University Avenue in Charlottetown closed temporarily Saturday after staff members tested positive for COVID-19. All three are women in their 20s who work at the restaurants and are close contacts of each other.
The four more cases — three women in their 20s and one in her 30s — were announced Sunday and are connected to the three announced on Saturday.
