Remember that we are in a period of seasonal respiratory infections (flu, cold) and that many children and adults are expected to have respiratory symptoms due to these viruses. 

 

It is recommended that everyone adopt basic respiratory hygiene and cough etiquette: 

 Wash your hands often with soap and warm running water for at least 20 seconds.

 Use alcohol-based disinfectant if you do not have access to soap and water. 

 If you sneeze or cough, cover your mouth and nose with your arm to reduce the spread of germs.

 Wash your hands after blowing your nose. 

 

As mentioned in the letter from the Ministry, the overall risk for Canadians remains low. 

 

We hope this information is useful in answering any questions you may receive about the situation.
