Correction:

EDITOR’S NOTE: A previous version of this article reported 44 cases of COVID-19, including 34 among inmates, had been identified at the Headingley Correctional Centre on Monday, Nov. 2, 2020. However, the Province of Manitoba has said this number was understated, and was actually 95 total cases, including 74 among inmates. This article and headline have been corrected to reflect this.
