One patient and at least three people who worked in the Crisis Response Centre (CRC) have tested positive for COVID-19. In a memo sent Friday, management at the centre on Bannatyne Avenue — adjacent to the Health Sciences Centre in Winnipeg — told staff two employees had tested positive and are now isolating at home. The memo said one patient who was at the centre for two days had also tested positive for the virus. Earlier this month, Shared Health confirmed someone who had worked in the CRC, but was not a member of staff, tested positive. A Shared Health spokesperson said Sunday that health and safety investigated and determined the risk to additional staff and clients was low.
