The Government of Ontario has placed Thunder Bay District Health Unit (TBDHU) in the “Orange – Restrict” category of the provincial COVID-19 Response Framework: Keeping Ontario Safe and Open. Strengthened public health measures will further help control the spread of COVID-19 in the TBDHU area. It came into effect at midnight.
“It is concerning that our numbers are such that we are moving to a more restrictive level on the provincial COVID-19 response framework. We must take this seriously. Business and organizations will need to adopt even further measures to limit any spread of the virus in those settings,” says Dr. Janet DeMille, Medical Officer of Health. “As individuals, we must all recommit to those basic measures that we need to do every day and with every interaction to prevent this virus from spreading in our area.”
