A Toronto man who was the country’s first confirmed case of coronavirus has been released from hospital.

Sunnybrook Health Sciences issued a statement early Friday and said the man’s health has improved over the past week to the point where he no longer requires hospital care.

They say the patient was discharged Friday morning and Toronto Public Health will continue to monitor him while he’s at home.
