There are no cases of COVID-19 in Newfoundland and Labrador on Friday, the Department of Health said.
The province continues to have nine active cases, with a total caseload of 288 since March.
There have been 275 recoveries and four deaths since the virus first landed in Newfoundland and Labrador.
A new case was reported in the Central Health region a day ago, a man between 20 and 39 years old who returned to the province from work in Alberta.
As a result of the case, the Department of Health issued an advisory on Friday ahead of its COVID-19 update asking passengers who travelled on Air Canada Flight 7484 from Toronto to Deer Lake on Oct. 12 to call 811 to arrange for COVID-19 testing.
To date, 50,177 people have been tested for COVID-19 in Newfoundland and Labrador. Of those, 331 were tested in the last day.
