At least 125 migrant workers at one Ontario farm have tested positive for COVID-19

Of the 216 migrant workers at Scotlynn Group's farm in Norfolk County, Ont., 125 have tested positive for COVID-19.TORONTO -- It’s asparagus harvest season, but some of the fields in Norfolk County, Ontario, are all but empty following an outbreak of COVID-19 that has spread to 125 migrant workers from Mexico, temporarily halting production.

The workers arrived from Mexico to Biddle’s farm back in early April - already delayed due to the pandemic and travel restrictions - and underwent a 14-day quarantine before starting work. Everyone came out of the quarantine healthy and nobody showed any symptoms prior to Thursday, according to Biddle.

“The guys have had extremely limited contact with the community,” said Kristal Chopp, the mayor of Norfolk County.

It is time for Canadians to help Trudeau win his UN Seat. Help the Trudeau Islamist in Canada show their true love for the people of Humanity. Starting in 2021 with all Muslims in Canada marching hand in hand with Gays and Trudeau so the entire world to see the true Islam.

So terrible. Feel awful for them. Scary to be away from home and sick.

Why aren’t these workers tested before being brought here? Now we have 125 migrants in Canada who cannot work bc they have the virus and have likely spread the disease. Use common sense.

So now he can afford to pay local workers $25/hr!! But he preferred to order temporary foreign workers... wonder how much they were getting paid. Do better Canada

A dangerous situation.

ffs

do people really care about covid anymore? really?

Absolute fail on Government!!!

May they get the help and support they need.

More fear mongering to get click bait news headlines. Stop with these fake ass stories.

Horrible!

No 14 day quarantine

Did they start work there in Nov/Dec 2019 or after that?

SEEMS. AN. IGNORANT. PIECE O. JOURNALISM ITS.NOT. ABOUT. 125 JUST. O. N. E. WOULD. DO. THE TRICK ITS. ALL. ABOUT. THE. R,O,

What! ?

It’s a good thing they isolated for 14 day as per required by Blackfacetrudeau

WTH?

Can we help them in anyway? Communication, food, medicines?

Wtf!! Did they not have to self isolate upon arrival. What is Ontario doing? cdnpoli JustinTrudeau fordnation Ontario

I think the importance is not the diagnosis, but in the severity of symptoms.

Prove it !!

What the Liberal organized crime family isn't telling you is that these coronavirus cases were imported into Canada, exactly as predicted. Meanwhile, students remain jobless.

Who is surprised? Do we actually believe that they had self isolated when they came into Canada?

What do you mean,we have to test the workers coming into ontario. Well that’s just stupid,oh wait,what’s that? Keep the emergency lockdown for another month,what a great idea😷😷😷😷😷

Good

They had the 14 day isolation. How did this happen? There should be mandatory test prior to arrival and then a 14 day isolation. 125/216 is a lot.

So? This virus is a sham

Still racist.

Not surprised that the Trudeau “Liberals lied yet again. They have made it abundantly clear their loyalties are not to Canada As for the farm all this means is that there are $25/hr jobs available for Canadian citizens who desperately need that work right now.

Alm should have been tested when they arrived. Poor policy by feds and province.

Hmmmm, Isn't it called VETTED and SCREENED ! Didn't the Government Impose laws for ALL Canadians to follow entering BACK into our country ! NOW what ! Our TAX dollars pay for their Health care ? Send them Home on their countries Pesos

U cant make this shit up
