Toronto Public Health is asking anyone who visited popular King Street West establishment Regulars between Sept. 13 and 22 to monitor for COVID-19 symptoms for 14 days. Three staff members at Regulars Bar, located near King and Bathurst streets, have tested positive for the virus.

Toronto Public Health estimates that as many as 600 people may have been exposed to the virus between the aforementioned dates.

“Regulars Bar has worked cooperatively with TPH throughout this investigation,” TPH said in a statement on Sunday. “TPH extends thanks to Regulars Bar management and other local businesses who are helping to reduce the spread of this virus by taking measures to keep staff, customers and the broader public safe.”

Last week, TPH ordered multiple King Street drinking and dining establishments closed after they did not meet guidelines to limit transmission.

MARBL, King Taps, and Casa Mezcal were all named by TPH over the weekend.

The King Street businesses will be allowed to reopen when Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Eileen de Villa is satisfied that each establishment has complied with her order. City enforcement teams of Toronto Police, bylaw officers, and Toronto Public Health officers will ensure compliance with the orders until they are lifted.
