"This person lives outside of Toronto and TPH is working with the applicable health unit who will request information about possible sources of infection as part of their investigation," Dr. Dubey said in a statement shared with Narcity.

Health authorities cannot yet confirm if the two cases are connected, according to CP24. Narcity has reached out to TPH for more details on this.

The City of Toronto stated last week that patrons who visited The Brass Rail at nighttime between August 4 and August 8 should self-monitor for symptoms.
