Please do your best to keep yourself and your community safe in the coming days, as we all look forward to a COVID-free holiday season.
Public Health asks people answer calls from private numbers as this is how calls will appear for the purposes of contact tracing and reporting test results to patients. PCR tests can be booked via the Health Centre. They also request members continue to take all precautions, both in and out of the community as cases are rising in the region, with 118 cases reported by the province during their last update.
