"Dr. Hamidah Meghani, the medical officer of health for the Region of Halton, said it’s believed Cunnington’s case is one of “local transmission” since he didn’t recently travel outside of Canada.
“What we see now is that at the moment, we know that he did not travel outside of Canada, nor does he have a link to a known COVID-19 case, and thus the indication is that there is local transmission,” Meghani said.
"...After dealing with the symptoms for a few days, Watson said he went to the hospital in Milton where he was diagnosed with pneumonia. She said he was given a prescription and sent home, adding he return to hospital not too long after.
“Everything happened really fast after that,” she said, noting he didn’t get a COVID-19 test until a few days before his death.
