You can either follow the health guidelines or you can be dead. If that message seems blunt, it’s supposed to be, says Mike Bradley.
The Sarnia, Ont. mayor is pleading with residents to physically distance and self-isolate as health officials in Lambton County work to quell rising case numbers and a COVID-19 outbreak at a retirement home in the city, which has left several residents dead.
The county on Thursday recorded a total of 59 confirmed cases of COVID-19, along with six deaths. Four of those deaths have involved residents of Landmark Village.
According to the Sarnia Observer, multiple residents and staff at the facility have also tested positive for COVID-19 because of the outbreak — three staff members on Wednesday alone.
