A total of five new coronavirus cases have been recorded, health officials announced today.

The health department added that flu vaccine sessions have been cancelled because it had run out of shots.

A spokeswoman said: “This is due to an atypical surge in demand for the vaccine as well as supply chain disruption due to the cancellation of British Airways flights.

“Therefore all walk-in service for obtaining flu vaccines for the following weeks are cancelled.

“This was previously scheduled to take place at the Hamilton Health Centre.”

The coronavirus cases were all identified between last Friday and Sunday and were included in 2235 test results that came back to health officials today.

They all came in off flights from Miami or Toronto.

One of the cases, a visitor, arrived on the flight from Toronto last Friday.

Two of the cases were returned residents and two were visitors who came in off flights from Miami last Friday, November 5, November 1 and October 29.

The Miami arrival last Friday tested positive on arrival after a clear pre-departure test, as did the Toronto visitor who arrived the same day.

The November 5 visitor from Miami tested positive on arrival after a clear pre-departure test.

The returned resident who arrived on the November 1 Miami flight tested positive on the day 4 test after clear arrival and pre-departure tests.

The returned resident who arrived from Miami on October 29 was “tested as a close contact” after they got a clear pre-departure test, arrival test and day 4 test.
