A Burlington hospital where there have been two outbreaks of COVID-19 is telling workers who test positive for the virus to return to work “immediately” if they are asymptomatic. A daily debrief sent to staff on April 12 appears to blame the outbreaks on staff not properly following protocols. He said three hospitals he’s worked with in the GTA are requiring workers to test negative before returning. He said health-care workers train on how to put on and take off PPE, but it’s hard to be perfect at it. According to Public Health Ontario, there were 857 cases in health-care workers as of April 13.
