It is certainly unfortunate and disheartening that anyone would place themselves and more importantly others at risk by not following the simple direction provided to them in respect to self-quarantine.

The Chatham-Kent Public Health is now investigating after the 41-year-old man potentially exposed the community.

The man was on his way back from Florida and was meant to self-isolate until July 24. 

However, the police release does not say whether or not he has tested positive for COVID-19.
