Covid-19
Celebrating at Lynch’s Irish Pub on June 6 in Jacksonville Beach after months of assiduously following quarantine rules, Crisp, a 40-year-old health care worker, let her precautions lapse. "I think we were careless and we went out into a public place when we should not have,” Crisp told WJXT of their trip down Denial Lane. “And we were not wearing masks. I think we had a whole ‘out of sight, out of mind’ mentality. The state opens back up and said everybody was fine, so we took advantage of that.” 🤬 Darwin award winner there!

Kenora health officials warn of possible COVID-19 exposure 06/11/2020 8:24 AM Health officials in northwestern Ontario are warning the public of possible risk of exposure to COVID-19 at two Kenora stores.
