After last week's confirmed case at a Yorkdale retail store, the shopping centre remained open. Now, there is a second COVID-19 case at Yorkdale Mall — this time, at JOEY Restaurant.

The mall did not confirm whether the individual was an employee or customer, but did confirm that they were self-isolating, reports CTV News.
