    Is Delta variant in Brandon? 
    10/13/2021 at 8:56 AM
    For quite awhile now we have been reading about the fourth wave and how Delta variant would be the worst.  
    My question is, does Brandon have the DV here?  
    Every day I read the covid news on CBC but the cases are listed as "variants of concern".  
    Does anyone have any info on how much Delta variant in here in our city?

    Wasn’t the Christian Heritage outbreak caused by the delta strain? I thought I read that somewhere

    I would assume so

    Manitoba is terribly slow at sequencing for whatever reason. Ontario is better at it, and over 99% of their current active cases are Delta. So yes, I would presume virtually all active cases in MB is Delta.

    Most definitely. Like RC123 said, CH outbreak was linked to Delta:

    As spread upticks in the province, best to assume it’s out there and follow measures as directed to limit spread.

    the gov't actually gave the number of cases that are the Delta variant.  
    That's all I wanted to see. Read on CBC online website.
