YMCA exposure
The Fredericton YMCA daycare is reporting a case of COVID-19 at its facility.
The organization confirmed the case in a letter to parents and said they are working with Public Health to identify children and staff who would have been in contact with the case.
The letter did not say whether the case was a staff member, or a child who attends the daycare.
"Public Health is asking that you [parents] please restrict your movements for the next 48hrs to allow for contact tracing and please stay close to your telephone in case they try and contact your family," Brittany Hunter, the director of child care for the YMCA, said in the letter.
If parents aren't contacted by Public Health, their children can return to the facility.
Public Health said the public exposures at the daycare took place on May 17-18.
