Fifty\u002Dfive staff and cadets contracted the virus in late July.
Military sources contacted this newspaper about the outbreak at the Connaught Cadet Training Centre, raising concerns about what they claim was poor treatment of the cadets, who at times went without food. In one incident, an adult staff member who had COVID, and who was not given meals, left the camp to go to a fast-food outlet.
Jackson said the peak of the outbreak took place from July 21 to July 25. There were around 430 cadets and staff at the camp. Jackson said food was delivered to the tents during regular mealtimes and included accommodations for allergies and specific diets, but she acknowledged “the overall selection was more limited than typically available at the dining hall.”Article content
Earlier this month, Ottawa Public Health warned that COVID-19 levels remained “very high” in the capital and stressed that everyone should keep up the “layers of protection” helping to limit transmission.
