Canadian Government has announced that two cases of the Omicron COVID-19 variant have been confirmed in persons who had recently traveled from Nigeria.
According to a statement by the Ontario government on Sunday, the two Nigerian patients are already isolated, adding that the province public health is already conducting case and contact management.
“Today, the province of Ontario has confirmed two cases of the omicron variant of COVID-19 in Ottawa, both of which were reported in individuals with recent travel from Nigeria.

The ban, which will take effect from today, extends to people who have been in South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Mozambique, Eswatini, or Nigeria in the past 14 days.
