Ontario’s Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit has declared a coronavirus outbreak at a Collingwood long-term care home after three residents tested positive for the virus.
The Collingwood Nursing Home says it was informed of the positive test results on Wednesday night but that the three residents haven’t experienced any symptoms of COVID-19. “All other residents have tested negative,” Peter Zober, the administrator and president of the Collingwood facility, said in a letter addressed to residents’ family members. “We are vigorously working with public health authorities in managing this and identifying anyone who may have been exposed to prevent further spread.” All staff members at the long-term care home are being tested for COVID-19 —
