Last Updated Wednesday, September 2, 2020 5:07PM EDTMONTREAL -- Quebec City's director of public health is encouraging all those who frequented bars in the city's Saint-Sauveur neighbourhood to get tested for COVID-19 after a recent outbreak that began in a karaoke bar spread into at least three schools in the region.

The infections contracted at the bar ended up leading to new cases at three of the five Quebec City schools that have reported COVID-19 cases, he added. The bar could face fines for not adhering to public health safety measures. He said, however, that the best route the government can take it to convince establishments and patrons that complying with health measures is the best guard against infection.

Arruda said at a seperate news conference that he's concerned about upcoming holidays such as Halloween and Christmas - festivities that typically bring large groups of people together that include singing.
