Update
- Outings on Hold for Long-Term Care Homes in Areas of Higher Community Spread . On the advice of the Chief Medical Officer of Health, effective October 16 and until further notice, short-term and temporary absences for social or personal reasons will not be allowed at long-term care homes in areas of the province where there is higher community spread of COVID-19. Only absences for medical or compassionate reasons will be allowed.
- Ontario Hiring Hundreds More Contact Tracers and Case Managers . The Ontario government is taking immediate action to expand case and contact management to help track, trace and isolate new cases of COVID-19. The province has hired 100 new contact tracers, many of whom are starting work this week, with up to 500 more recruits expected to be hired by mid-November. These new positions are part the province’s fall preparedness plan, Keeping Ontarians Safe: Preparing for Future Waves of COVID-19, which dedicates $ 1.376 billion to enhance and expand testing and contact tracing in the province.
- The Guidance for meeting and event facilities during COVID-19 has been updated and is available on the Ministry’s website.
