The patient tested positive for COVID-19 roughly two weeks ago. The sample was sent to the provincial laboratory for genetic sequencing to determine whether it was among the variants of concern. The patient was vaccinated two months ago. Under Quebec protocol, the results for any patient who has been vaccinated and later tests positive for COVID-19 are sent to provincial laboratories to undergo genetic sequencing tests to identify possible variants.
The health department for the region, the CIUSSS de la Mauricie-et-du-Centre-du-Québec, was advised of the positive case on Tuesday, officials with Quebec’s public health laboratory said. In Montreal, variants account for roughly 75 per cent of cases. To date, the variant B.1.1.7, which originated in the U.K., is by far the most prevalent, but the B.1.351 variant from South Africa has dominated in the Abitibi region. Other variants identified in small numbers in the province are the P.1 and the B.1.525.Article content
Well with our joking boarder management it’s just a problem of time to get more variants from outside 🤷♀️
Silly Quebec 😂
😂 fear mongering is fun Whoever still believe this garbage is an idiot.
For the life of me I have no idea why we are still allowing international flights.
Who cares you babies, covid is not dangerous by any definition, grow up and get a job
WHY THE HELL ARE WE ALLOWING INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS?
Good time to seal the border with QUE. Maybe do it for 40-50 years, just to be safe.
Time to stop the direct flights from India, as well as to confirm departure origin for those that might try multiple connections. Canadian citizens returning need to accept the full 14 day quarantine concept - worked pretty well here in Australia. Of course people will cheat...🤷🏼♂️
Canada got to stop flights from India now!
Lovely
Flights coming from India should've been shut down by now. It's another failure from the fed gov slow response to Covid
Here we go....this is never going to end....CLOSE BORDERS!!!!
hahahahahahahaahahahha. who believes this complete bullshit.
If they have confirmed one case, then there are probably 100s of not 1000s that are already here.
JustinTrudeau please act now. Stop all flights.
Get vaccinated, get COVID. Future (or lack of one) is looking bright, folks!
Not a surprise. How many flights have been coming from India? 3 a day everyday. It’s bound to happen. But of course Canada has the strongest measures of protection at our boarders....
No sense in stopping flights from anywhere now. If it is here...then it will spread.
If only that case was in whatever cottage Trudeau resides in
Good thing we stopped all international flights from highly infected countries.
lmao you guys are a joke!
What will it take for JT to shut the border with India? Is he being held hostage because they are a potential vaccine supplier?
Flights from India are banned in the U.K. Why not in Canada? Trudeau cares about his reelection, not health of Canadians.
=^.^= can NOT wait for the triple FcKMUPPET mutant COVID variant = I LOV3 THR33SOMES
Double mutant huh? 🤣🤣 Sure. Tell it to the double maskers. They'll gladly eat your shit.
But Trudeau keeps saying he has our backs 24/7.
Why is anyone flying? I thought the narrative was that if you could work from home do it. This is never going to end if this keeps up. My opinion only!
Why are the airlines still allowed to fly and bring passengers into Canada? So easy to avoid all of this. Someone needs to make the tough call.
Maybe the gov't should have stopped flights from India. If the gov't can close provincial borders, they can close int'l borders. And to the 'woke' people ready to pounce, it's not racist to shut down flights from a Country that isn't predominately 'white'.
Mutant Ninja Turtle?
jjhorgan steeletalk adriandix BC is not far away.
Someone wake Trudeau up
Way to go Trudeau.
As more flights come into Canada.
Trudeau still welcome 2 direct flight per days from India and every flight have average 100 affected passengers on it. Do the math. Cheating and selfish Ppl from those flights are normal in india
Trudeau knew this was going to happen. Somehow it will be someone else fault he did not stop flights out.
