There is a fourth case of the coronavirus in Windsor-Essex.
Medical officer of health Dr. Wajid Ahmed says a man in his 60s recently tested positive and had a recent travel history to the United States.
Dr. Ahmed says the risk of the virus is increasing in Windsor-Essex.
"All the cases that we have in our community right now are all travel related but we are noticing more and more communities across Ontario and also in Michigan, they are reporting community transmission," says Dr. Ahmed. "So it's just a matter of time that we will get there."
He says the safety and social distancing measures are to prevent community transmission.
"The risk to Windsor Essex County residents is increasing," says Dr. Ahmed. "So far all our confirmed cases have a travel history but it will be a matter of time when we start to see cases in our community and we start to see community transmission."
The man returned from the U.S. on March 13 and was tested on March 20. The health unit has reached out to the man's contact and they have been told to self-isolate.
To date, 554 people have been tested for coronavirus in Windsor-Essex with 355 tests still pending.
