Many travellers returning to Montreal from visits to China are choosing to self-quarantine for two weeks, and the Chinese community is supporting them by bringing them food.
La Presse says that a plane carrying a passenger from Iran infected with COVID-19 stopped over in Montreal on February 14. CTV has picked up the story. There have been at least six deaths in Iran from the disease, as well as an outbreak in Italy, and the links to China in these cases are not clear. There have been an estimated 78,000 cases worldwide.
Montreal’s public health has a page on the disease. No cases have been signalled yet in Quebec.
