A Hamilton Health Sciences radiation oncologist is the city's first confirmed positive case of COVID-19, a hospital spokesperson has confirmed.

On Wednesday, a staff member in her 30s tested positive for COVID-19 after returning from a personal trip to Hawaii. Since the doctor's return to the Juravinski Cancer Centre, she was in contact with both cancer patients and staff members.

The doctor was at work on the afternoon of March 9 and was tested that same day. She received confirmation of a positive test on March 10 and has been in self-isolation since.

The 32-year-old, who lives in Burlington, Ont., returned from her trip Saturday. Health officials say the doctor's spouse is a surgeon at another Hamilton hospital, St. Joseph's Healthcare. He is not showing symptoms, but is being monitored.

During an update Wednesday afternoon, officials said the doctor had been in contact with 14 cancer patients. Staff are now in the process of reaching out to those people and their family members.

Five staff members, one senior oncology resident and three other doctors were also in contact with the physician; they're all currently self-isolating, except for one doctor who has flown out of the country.

There have been 93 cases of COVID-19 identified in Canada so far, with 41 of those in Ontario, including this latest case.
