Premier Doug Ford says a junior member of his tour team has tested positive for COVID-19.
"I had no close contact or prolonged exposure to them and will therefore closely monitor my symptoms and take appropriate action as needed," Ford wrote on Twitter. "I wish this member of my team a speedy and safe recovery."
In a statement, the Premier's office says, "All staff that had contact with their teammate will self-isolate and monitor for symptoms. The Premier will closely monitor for symptoms and take appropriate next steps if necessary."
