Three confirmed cases of the virusand one probable case have been linked to a cluster of infectionsthat stem fromthe large gathering, says the local health unit.

Apublic heath noticehas been issued by York Regionto help with contact tracing for anyone that was at17015 8th Concession in the Township of King from6p.m. to 12:30 a.m.

The three confirmed cases were infectious while at the party and reported that they did not practice physical distancing or wear a face mask,according to YRPH.

In a post on Facebook King Township Mayor Steve Pellegriniwrote he's "disappointed that individuals living in King chose to blatantly disregard the conditions that only permit a gathering of 10 people within your bubble and put our community at risk."

Health officials have maintained that the virus is still out there, even as the province reopens more businesses and activities.

The provincial government recently gave York Region permission to enter stage 3 of re-opening on July 24.

YRPH says people should monitor themselves for new or worsening symptoms related to COVID-19 because they may have been exposed to the virus.

If they have not developed symptoms they should still call YRPH, get tested and self isolate for 14 days.
