Ottawa residents who contract COVID-19 and fear infecting their families will now have the option to self-isolate at a local hotel, thanks to a multi-million dollar grant from the federal government.
The $4.7-million grant was announced Thursday morning as the city reported another 52 cases of COVID-19. The location of the hotel, where 107 rooms will be set aside starting Dec. 21, has not been disclosed.
