Coronavirus: We need more nurses and quarantine officers at Canadian airports, border workers’ union says

Customs and immigration officers — the first line of defence against the spread of coronavirus by ill travellers — say more Health Canada nurses are required at Canada’s major airports.
They also want quarantine officers on standby at airports.
“Our officers aren’t doctors or nurses and that’s why they need guidance, they need support,” said Jean-Pierre Fortin, president of the Customs and Immigration Union, which represents 11,000 workers.
“If it’s obvious — if someone is sweating or coughing or looks sick — then our officers will immediately refer that person to the nurse, but (it’s not always obvious) and we don’t have enough nurses on-site to do the job.”
on the US side, there’s not an entry for Nebraska, so the 12 Calif may be those shipped there. (although I think NB has 13?)
Just like this strategically dropped news story today (after the closing bell), they know about these cases already and only release info on them at the worst time to hurt PDT’s economy.
I fear that we will have a weekend of stories about new infections so that next week the stock market will have even bigger losses than this week.
