OBEY 57,029 Posted April 5 (edited) UPDATE APRIL 7TH : now 400+ cases confirmed and one man aged 40 died. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/mega-gym-outbreak-death-quebec-city-covid-1.5978454 CANADA "Mega Gym 24H's owner has long fought government's orders, insisting fitness facilities should stay open. At least 141 people have contracted COVID-19 in connection to an outbreak at a gym in Quebec City, the regional health authority confirmed Thursday. The outbreak at Mega Gym 24H has led to 21 more outbreaks at workplaces, according to the CIUSSS de la Capitale-Nationale. The CIUSSS ordered the gym closed on Wednesday morning for violating sanitary protocols. Despite the order, the facility remained open until about 3 p.m. That's when Quebec City police showed up to shut the place down. Owner has history of defying provincial orders Dan Marino, owner of Mega Gym, has not responded to requests for comment. Marino has been a vocal opponent of gym closures throughout the pandemic, rallying other fitness centre owners to his side as he pushed for reopening. He opened his gym in defiance of provincial regulations back in June, attracting police and media to his door. In the past, Marino has also shared social media posts that question the effectiveness of masks and minimize the dangers of the novel coronavirus. Now his Facebook page is being bombarded with angry comments as people blame him for the provincial government's decision to close all non-essential businesses, including gyms, in Quebec City until at least April 12."
