Update on Health Issues at North Campus

As of Monday, January 23, we are pleased to report that the number of ill students has not increased appreciably and we are working diligently to ensure that this continues.

As well, approximately 75 per cent of students who were ill now report that they are feeling better. We are hoping to have this confirmed by Toronto Public Health (TPH) by the end of the day.

Although formal test results are pending, TPH suggests that the symptoms are consistent with a seasonal virus such as norovirus. We are hoping to receive confirmation of the source by the end of the day.
