Health-care workers could be seen lining up at shift outside many hospitals around Winnipeg amid new COVID-19 screening measures being implemented by the province.
They will also be asked questions about symptoms, travel history and possible COVID-19 exposure. If staff come and go throughout their shift, they’ll be subject to re-screening.
This comes after staff at St. Boniface, Grace, and Selkirk hospitals tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this week. On Thursday, the province announced more health care staff had tested positive for the virus at the Health Sciences Centre (HSC) in Winnipeg and at Betel Home Gimli.
