KFL&A Public Health has announced a new case of COVID-19 in the Kingston area, bringing the city’s total up to four.
The first three cases were identified in the area on Tuesday.
These three people — two women, 44 and 62, and a 48-year-old man — travelled respectively to Barbados, the United Kingdom and Spain in the last two weeks.
Dr. Kieran Moore, medical officer for health for KFL&A Public Health, says the new case was found in a woman in her 70s who had recently returned from Portugual. She is currently receiving treatment at a Kingston hospital.
Currently, public health officials are investigating who the woman came into contact with, and to advise those people to monitor for symptoms.
