There are now 60 confirmed or presumptive cases of COVID-19 in Canada.

That includes two presumptive cases in Alberta involving a woman in her 50's from Calgary and a man in his 40's from Edmonton.  Both cases are travel-related and both people are recovering in isolation at home with support from public health officials.

Canada's first apparent case of community transmission was also reported in British Columbia on Thursday.

In light of the spread of the virus throughout parts of the world, many companies are making changes and it could impact your next cup of coffee.

Starbucks Canada announced it is pausing the use of personal cups and travel mugs as well as in house dishware in the hopes of reducing the risk of potential spread.

In a statement on its website, Starbucks said it has provided information on what to do if a store is impacted by the virus. It’s also restricted all business-related air travel, domestic and international through March 31 and modified or postponed large meetings.

“The health and well-being of our partners and customers remains top of mind and our highest priority, and we will continue to act thoughtfully and courageously despite the disruption and uncertainty COVID-19 brings to our daily lives,” the company said.

Customers who bring in their own mugs will still get a 10-cent discount but will be given single-use cups instead.

Other coffee chains including Tim Hortons and Second Cup have also halted the environmentally friendly measure.

“Though health officials have not recommended any changes to current procedures, after listening to our restaurant owners and comments from our guests, we are going to pause on accepting reusable cups at this time,” said a statement from Tim Hortons.

The company is also delaying the distribution of 1.8 million reusable cups, which were going to part of its new Roll Up the Rim contest rolling out on March 10th.

“For any guest that brings a reusable cup to our restaurants and purchases a hot beverage scanning their Tims Rewards card or app, we will honour the three digital rolls described in our campaign, however, the guest will be provided their beverage in a recyclable paper cup,” Tim Hortons said.

The World Health Organization said COVID-19 has infected more than 100,000 people worldwide. However, it is still much less widespread than annual flu epidemics, which results in up to five million cases and as many as 650,000 deaths each year.
