Public Health Sudbury & Districts moving to yellow level of provincial COVID-19 response framework https://www.phsd.ca/public-health-sudbury-districts-moving/ ... Today, the Government of Ontario placed Public Health Sudbury & Districts in the Yellow-Protect category of the provincial COVID-19 response framework. Strengthened public health measures will come into effect in our service area to help control the spread of COVID-19 on Monday, November 16, 2020, at 12:01 a.m. These measures include limited hours of operations for certain settings, reduced recreational program sizes, additional enforcements and fines, and enhanced education in high-risk settings. Our case counts are at an all-time high with 42 (updated) of our 204 total cases reported in the last week alone. We are averaging about 12 high risk contacts for each case so far. These numbers combined with how stretched our public health and health care systems are, mean that stronger protection measures are needed, said Dr. Penny Sutcliffe, Medical Officer of Health with Public Health Sudbury & Districts. The Yellow-Protect restrictions must be accompanied by a re-commitment of everyone to the basic public health prevention measures. How this surge in cases evolves and the measures and restrictions that will be necessary to control it are in our hands. Make no mistake, our everyday actions either allow the virus to spread or allow us to contain it. We can choose wisely and dig deep, added Dr. Sutcliffe. Regardless of which provincial category we are classified in, we must assume that COVID-19 is everywhere and take necessary precautions. Keeping our communities safe and our health care, education, social services and economic fabric strong means counting on everyone to do the right thing. #Sudbury #PublicHealth #Manitoulin
