While Ontario, like other jurisdictions, has taken measures to be able to live with and manage COVID-19 for the long-term, we still need to do our part to protect ourselves and others, especially during respiratory illness season.

This includes using the layers of protection that we know help keep ourselves and others healthy:

• staying up to date on your COVID-19 vaccines and flu shots
• wearing a tight-fitting, well-constructed mask in indoor public settings, especially if you are at higher risk of severe infection.
• visitors and patients should follow any requirements for masking in hospitals, long-term care homes, and other health care spaces
• staying home when you are sick and wearing a mask until day 10 from symptom onset
• washing your hands often
• covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze
• regularly cleaning high touch surfaces
• optimizing indoor air quality
• if you are high risk, talk to your health care provider about antiviral treatment options in case you get sick.
