ontario Ontario extends emergency orders to June 19, as province reports 455 new COVID-19 cases 68 of the new cases the result of 'laboratory-to-public health reporting delay'. The province's emergency orders had been set to expire June 9 but Ontario announced Saturday that they are being extended until June 19. Those orders include banning people from dining in bars and restaurants, and gathering in groups larger than five. They also include the closure of child-care centres, though Premier Doug Ford has said that a phased reopening plan for them will be announced early next week. Extending the emergency orders also means the continued closure of bars and restaurants except for takeout and delivery, libraries except for curbside pickup or delivery, and theatres. Ontarians looking to use playgrounds, or beat the heat at public pools and splash pads are also out of luck as a result of the extended orders.

scotland No new Covid-19 deaths in Scotland for second day in a row The First Minister said that two successive days without any registered deaths is “very encouraging”. She added: “I can’t tell you how long I have waited to be able to report such a development and I know all of you will have longed to hear that.” However, she said it was likely that more deaths from the virus would be reported in the coming days, with a tendency for under-reporting at weekends.
