A 19-year-old man who worked as a cleaner at a long-term care home outside of London, Ont. died Thursday after contracting COVID-19.

The Middlesex-London Health Unit confirmed his death on Saturday as it reported 50 new cases and two other fatalities.

Dr. Alex Summers, the region's associate medical officer of health, said Dabeh likely got infected while working at the nursing home. He noted that there had been a number of outbreaks at long-term care facilities in his region as a result of high community transmission.

The vaccine doesn’t protect you from spreading, SO...same shit

Young. I hope people realize that you don't need to be old to die from COVID19

Why not mention his name?

Second wave of Covid-19 hitting us again, be aware every one, stay home as much we can to back down the infected transmission cases to spare ICU units for needed persons. RIP😔 poor young cleaning worker died of it....so real not fake news!

R.I.P.buddy 😷🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🥲

This is why, contrary to AndreaHorwath misguided beliefs, you'll never find 10,000 new PSWs to work in LTC in an instant

Tragic Loss - too young

Tragic. Condolences to the family. Stay inside people, save lives.

Diagnosed or not we all know that the diagnosis rates are too high and fake... doctors are being paid to write you off as covid as long as you have a runny nose smh. No wonder ppl who do actually get it treat it as a joke !

Terrible news, but I hope the people between 18-35 start to wake up and act more responsible. RIP

It's heartbreaking. RIP. Long term Care issue needs to be sorted out, it's inhuman almost a year later we are still seeing so many deaths in LTCs.
