Shortly after, two people wearing protective suits and masks entered the room and told Lynne, 76, she had been directly exposed to COVID-19. Lynne was one of 11 cancer patients who had been in direct contact Monday with a Juravinski radiation oncologist who later tested positive for COVID-19. After Lynne's radiation treatment for skin cancer, they both met with a physician who looked "very healthy" — little did they know, the doctor was about to begin experiencing symptoms and would soon test positive for COVID-19. On Wednesday, local health officials confirmed that Lynne's doctor, a radiation oncologist at Hamilton Health Sciences cancer centre, contracted COVID-19 from a trip to Hawaii. While Carrie and Lynne wait for more information, they plan to stay in self-isolation.
