Several players and staff members on the Toronto Blue Jays have tested positive for COVID-19, a source has told The Canadian Press.
The source confirmed the news on condition of anonymity because the team has not officially announced the positive cases.
The developments came less than a week after the Blue Jays shut down their spring training complex in Dunedin, Fla., after a player presented symptoms consistent with the virus. Last Friday, the team said personnel at the facility underwent testing per protocols established by its medical team and Major League Baseball.
Sportsnet's Shi Davidi was the first to report the positive COVID-19 test results on Wednesday afternoon.
