TORONTO Both Peel Region and Toronto will now require workplaces with five or more recent coronavirus cases to shut down for 10 days in most instances in a bid to stem spread of the virus in settings largely permitted to operate as normal during the Ford government’s third state of emergency. Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Lawrence Loh says that beginning on Friday, any business with five or more known COVID-19 cases occurring within a span of 14 days or fewer, where cases “could have reasonably acquired their infection at work,” or no other source of transmission can be identified, will have to shut down.
