Coronavirus: What's happening in Canada and around the world on May 9

The latest:

Manitoba is shifting students from kindergarten to Grade 12 in Winnipeg and Brandon to remote learning amid a spike in COVID-19 cases, officials said on Sunday.

The move takes effect Wednesday and will last until May 30, said Chief Provincial Public Health Officer Dr. Brent Roussin.

Schools outside those cities will still be able to open for in-person learning but with additional restrictions.

Manitoba, with Canada’s second-highest caseload when accounting for population, tallied 531 new cases and three additional deaths on Sunday.
