要求了四次,拖延了一个礼拜才给做的检查,而且在飞机上已经生病了,媒体还说没有,还不通知同飞机的人

Dear friends,
Can you imagine, a single Ottawa case of COVID-19 is my husband’s co-worker in Ciena, the member of his immediate team.
Every year he takes this trip to Austria to ski. He came back sick. Did not feel well while on the plane. Nobody stopped or tested him in the airport here. Moreover, he came to work on Monday, March 2, being very ill. They had a team meeting for an hour. And everybody was mad with Him, because he came in sick. My husband jokingly named him Covid and sit far away from him. But the guy was coughing like crazy.
Beginning from Tuesday, the sick guy was in isolation. He went to see the doctor 4 times demanding to be tested, but the doctors refused to administer the test, sending him home. Only a week later, on March 9, he finally got tested and today the COVID-19 was confirmed.
The sad story is that our public health response system is not ready for pandemic, the media are spreading lies that the guy came to Canada without symptoms and passengers on his plane are not at risk. They are at huge risk! The testing is not available, and we have already several severe cases in the community transmission in Canada. I am sure we have many more undetected.
Only I, who was potentially exposed, went to the swimming pool yesterday, attended a seminar with 40 people on Monday, had a meeting with 15 people yesterday, and was in French class of 16 on Saturday. All these people are at risk now, not to mention my immediate work team. I am absolutely devastated. My husband has mild symptoms for a week, and I have a headache, but no fever. I am very scared
I will be in self-isolation for the next 2 weeks.
Stay vigilant, don’t trust the news ( they are rosier than the reality) and stay well! Use protective measures while in public places, don’t go to any concerts, as the virus is here!
With respect,
“
