COVID outbreak at ESHC
CC STUDENT RECEIVES SCHOLARSHIP
LEAMINGTON — Ella Riccio-Durocher, a Grade 12 student at Cardinal Carter Catholic Secondary School, was surprised in class by Huron University College President, Dr. Barry Craig, on Friday, March 25. Ella was named recipient of the Hellmuth Scholarship, valued at $100,000 and awarded to only 10 high school students each year. Huron University College is a Liberal Arts College located at Western University in London. Ella says she’s been dreaming of this scholarship for awhile, and is hoping to garner a double major in government leadership and ethics. She hopes to pursue law school. Her English teacher, Lisa Jacobs, described Ella as a remarkable young woman who is wise beyond her years. Photo submitted
LEAMINGTON – The announcement of an outbreak on an inpatient unit at Erie Shores HealthCare shows the need for continued visitor restrictions and PPE requirements. The outbreak stems from two patients who tested positive for COVID-19 on March 18, 2022. It’s believed those patients were infected by a visitor to the unit who had tested negative on a hospital-administered rapid-antigen test prior to the visit but later tested positive for the virus. The outbreak declared by the Windsor and Es-
sex County Health Unit (WECHU) on Friday is the first at Erie Shores HealthCare since the beginning of the pandemic. The outbreak is impacting the 2-Centre inpatient unit. Until it is rescinded, visitors will not be permitted on the unit unless it is to visit a patient receiving palliative care. The decision by WECHU to declare an outbreak emphasizes the need for ongoing visitor restrictions and full PPE use at the hospital. Currently, an inpatient is permitted two visitors, with one allowed at
the bedside at a time. All visitors must also pass a rapid-antigen test each day they visit and wear a mask and eye protection in all areas of the hospital. These protections will remain in place to keep patients and staff safe. CARD OF THANKS
