VICTORIA A shipment of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine is expected to arrive in a Vancouver Island First Nation Wednesday as cases of the virus continue to climb just days after a cluster was declared. Snuneymuxw First Nation’s chief Mike Wyse announced a total of 19 cases in the community located near Nanaimo on Tuesday. “We are definitely in trying times for Snuneymuxw, but as a community, we are hanging in there and moving forward, we’ve got a lot of good support on our side,” he said. A shelter-in-place order remains in effect and the people who have tested positive are isolating in the community. Residents are asked to stay home and security officers are monitoring people’s access in and out of the community.
