Three of the infections involve contacts of previously announced cases and are linked to the cluster that began in Prince County, while the fourth case is related to travel outside the province.

The province currently has 22 active cases of COVID-19.

Three Oaks Senior High School in Summerside was closed today to allow for contact tracing, testing and cleaning after a case was announced Sunday.
