COVID-19: The cases are as a couple from Durham who do not have a known travel history (Representative)
Montreal, Canada:
The first two cases of highly contagious coronavirus differentiation that appeared in Britain recently were confirmed in Canada, health authorities said Saturday.
“The cases from Durham are twins who have no travel history, publicity or high-risk connections,” Barbara Yaffe, the acting chief medical officer for Ontario, said in a statement.
The couple were left alone, according to the report, the same day Ontario stopped locking for several weeks due to a spike in Covid-19 cases in the province from early December.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Wednesday that his country would suspend passenger flights from the UK until January 6 as a result of the coronavirus restriction sweeping Britain.
Finding two cases in Ontario “reinforces the need for Ontarians to stay at home as much as possible and continue to follow all public health advice, including The country ‘s closure measures begin today, “Yaffe said.
The lockout will last in Ontario, Canada’s largest inhabited area of approximately 14 million residents, 28 days in the southern part of the province and 14 days in the north.
Private private gatherings are prohibited outside the family circle. Essential businesses, such as grocery stores and pharmacies, will be allowed to remain open, but restaurants will be limited to departure or delivery service.
On Saturday, Canada had recorded more than 534,000 cases of Covid-19 with more than 14,700 deaths.
