Some patients being flown to Winnipeg

Four people in stable condition are being taken by air to Winnipeg’s Health Science Centre. Three are going to the children’s hospital there and one to the adult emergency department for further care. 

Health Authorities say the 14 students on the bus were aged 16 to 18. 

The code orange alert called earlier today at the Health Sciences Centre, Manitoba’s largest health facility, has been stood down. 

A code orange remains in place at the Swan Valley Health Centre, where a family room has also been set up, with mental health support available. 

Clarification: An earlier version of this post said the Health Sciences Centre had called a code orange, when in fact it had called a code orange alert. A code orange alert is a readiness stage where a mass casualty incident has happened and teams assess what resources will be needed.
