Two health-care workers from the labour and delivery unit at Rockyview General Hospital in Calgary are now in isolation after a visitor did not disclose their COVID-19 status during the on-site screening process, AHS has confirmed. "There are no known positive patients or health-care workers on the unit and it is not on outbreak or on watch at this time," the spokesperson said. "Unfortunately, the exposure is believed to be related to a confirmed positive case in a visitor who did not disclose their COVID-19 status during the on-site screening process." Direct and indirect impactsThe implications of visitors not being truthful about their COVID-19 status is larger than people realize, Mattatall said. The immediate impacts are more obvious — in delivering health care, workers enter inside an unsafe two metres with a patient, meaning those carrying the virus can put health-care workers at risk.
