Toronto Community Housing has confirmed some tenants and at least one staff member have COVID-19. Kevin Marshman, TCH’s chief executive, told the Star on Thursday that in recent days “less than five” residents and one staff member informed the agency they have confirmed cases of COVID-19. The staff member notified the agency of their illness on Wednesday and had self-isolated for “about a week” prior, Marshman said. Public health officials are urging anyone with COVID-19 or exposure to the virus to self-isolate for at least 14 days. TCH staff who enter any tenant’s unit now must wear masks and gloves, eye protection and full body suit, he said.
