During the daily briefing with ministry and EOC officials, we learned that Ontario continues to have the same two positive cases. One person, a man in his early 50s remains in hospital at Toronto’s Sunnybrook Hospital in stable condition . His wife is in self-isolation at home.

It has been almost a week since Ontario reported its first case of the coronavirus. Today, we learned of a third positive case in our province in the city of London, involving a woman in her twenties with mild symptoms and who is recovering at home in self-isolation.

The number of confirmed cases in our province remains at three. A woman in London in her twenties, with mild symptoms and who is recovering at home in self-isolation. The other two positive cases, a Toronto couple in their fifties, continue to recover well at home in self-isolation.

The good news is that there are no new confirmed cases reported to us today by the EOC, in Canada or in Ontario.

The province has acquired several months-worth of supplies, including N95 masks. These will be distributed according to risk assessment needs.

News reports coming in the last hour (not yet incorporated into ministry reports) inform of a second, presumptive case in B.C. Details about this new case will be forthcoming tomorrow. The other B.C. case, reported earlier, involves a man who is recovering at home, in self-isolation.

The plans for the repatriation of Canadian citizens from Wuhan, China, who are scheduled to arrive at CFB Trenton this week, continue. They will be immediately quarantined and, thus, as per our Medical Officer of Health, Dr. David Williams, they will not impose any risk to the general population.

The federal government is repatriating 211 Canadian citizens from Wuhan, expected to arrive shortly. They will arrive at CFB Trenton and will immediately be quarantined for 14 days, says Ontario's Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. David Williams, so they will not impose any risk to the general population.

To our nursing and other health professional colleagues at CFB Trenton – thank you for being there! Please pass on our welcome, best wishes and let each one know that while we understand being quarantined in a small room for 14 days is unpleasant, we are thinking of them and sending love and good thoughts.

We hope you are having a good Saturday. As we heard yesterday 213 Canadians were evacuated from Wuhan and are being quarantined at CFB Trenton for 14 days, to protect themselves and others. We hear all is going well.
