Good news for the final 195 Canadians who were brought home from Wuhan, China and quarantined for 14 days. They had been isolated at Canadian Forces Base Trenton and carefully observed for the two-week period – which is the presumed incubation period of the virus.  Dr. Theresa Tam, Canada’s top health official says none of the evacuees showed any sign of the COVID-19 disease and pose no threat. The Canadian government will now arrange for them to be transported back to Toronto. The chief public health officer says the risk of the disease spreading in Canada is still very low.
