Dr. Deena Hinshaw said the source of the infection is more likely to have been a travel companion who had been a passenger on the Grand Princess cruise ship

EDMONTON — Alberta announced its first confirmed case of the novel coronavirus Sunday, along with more presumptive cases, officially making it the fourth province to be dealing with COVID-19.

“This marks four cases in four days,” Hinshaw said. “For many, this might be alarming. I want to underline that three of these four cases are linked to a single cruise ship.”“Health officials are reaching out to all individuals who may have been in close contact with them.” Ontario’s chief medical officer of health announced one new case Sunday — a woman in her 40s who had returned from a trip to Colorado on March 2.

Smith said other guests would be taken to federally operated isolation sites or transported out of California, however, he noted that he had been not given any specific information about non-U.S. citizens. In British Columbia, officials declared an outbreak of the novel coronavirus at a North Vancouver long-term care home on Saturday, saying two elderly residents were recently diagnosed with the virus along with four others in the province.
