Public health officials said as many as 550 people may have been exposed to COVID-19 at a Toronto strip club. 9News

It is the first time city officials have issued such as warning since allowing nightclubs and restaurants to reopen, with social distancing restrictions, on July 31.

Toronto Public Health said a worker at the Brass Rail strip club on Yonge Street tested positive for the virus. Authorities said the employee, who they declined to identify what job the person had, worked on Aug. 4, 5, 7, and 8.It said officials were contacting individuals who provided their information to the club upon entry and urged them, as well as those who had been in close contact with them, to self-isolate and get tested.

Dr Vinita Dubey, associate medical officer of health, said the club was issued a notice of noncompliance and the city is working to ensure physical distancing measures are followed. Dr Andrew Morris, a professor of infectious diseases at the University of Toronto and the medical director of the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program at Sinai-University Health Network, said strip clubs, nightclubs or bars should not be open until at least schools are up and running."We just know enough from everywhere that they are going to the sources of outbreaks," Morris said.

Victorian council elections likely to be postponed amid COVID-19 risksEven if stage four restrictions are lifted as planned in mid-September, stage three limits prevent candidates convening or attending meetings in open spaces or private residences, doorknocking and attending community events. We already conduct most local council elections by mail - why do they need to be postponed? If the US Presidential Campaigns can be held largely by virtual means, I’m sure the people who look after rubbish collection can do the same. Why the corona virus vaccine is useless at this moment?
