Health officials said all four patients were not showing severe symptoms and have been sent home where they’re in self-isolation

“At this time the virus is not circulating locally,” said a statement from the Ministry of Health.

“However, given the global circumstances, Ontario is actively working with city and health partners to plan for the potential of local spread.” British Columbia Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said the province is focused on containment and testing, but also has a pandemic stockpile in the province in case the situation gets worse.

B.C. Health Minister Adrian Dix noted that more than 1,000 people have been tested for the virus, which he says is a higher number than other jurisdictions, including the entire United States.Officials in both provinces said some of the first people to contract the virus have fully recovered. Ontario’s Ministry of Health said three of the first people to contract COVID-19 no longer have the illness, while four people in B.C. no longer have the virus.

We need a travel ban. The government are a bunch of idiots and Trudeau is not fit for office.

The WHO lying to you. Health Canada is lying to you. Why?

ValorOf1776 I don't like those frames.

Now will you close down all flights, no more travel! You are too late, hundreds will now get sick and maybe die! People lie, don’t self quarantine!😡

So canada now has the equivalent of 200 cases considering US population. They have 60 the Canadian equivalent of 6. How long before Trump closes the boarder?

Italy locked done its area, we in the meantime just go about our way. Quarantine GTA and Vancouver Now.

It’s about time our government acts on our behalf. Ban flights from the hotspots. Toronto ESL and LINC centre has been exposed to someone with the virus yet Toronto Public Health sends a letter out and the school remains open. Thanks to them the virus will spread.

and they have to send specimens to Winnipeg and wait for the result. It is kinda slow..

There will be no accurate way of keeping track of the various cases. Testing is too difficulty. Someone comes into the hospital with COVID-19 + test, then passes it on to staff and patients unknowingly. Unless staff are in full suits they will too catch it. Thus more spread.

Top health officials to begin ‘actively’ looking for COVID-19 cases in Canadian communitiesTheresa Tam, Canada’s Chief Public Health Officer, said they are ‘actively having conversations right now with provinces and territories’ on 'the next steps’ Should have done it sooner! Should have thought of all of this long ago instead of last minute reactive responses. You have failed us. What if this pandemic had a mortality rate of 15%? Mostly old people are at risk with this. What’s the mortality rate for seniors? We could be looking at hundreds of thousands of deaths. Do better.
