Deconfinement Stages

Staying Safe During Deconfinement

We would like to remind everyone that we all have a part to play in ensuring deconfinement is safe and successful for our communities:

  • Observe respiratory etiquette (Cough/sneeze in your sleeve. Throw used tissue in a closed garbage can).

  • Avoid touching your face (especially your mouth, nose, or eyes)

  • Thoroughly clean and disinfect public spaces

  • Maintain a physical distance of 2 metres (6 feet) when in public places, particularly among vulnerable

    people, including Elders and those with underlying health conditions

  • Stay home if you are sick, or if you have been exposed to the virus

  • Limit non-essential travel. Mandatory 14-day self-isolation after traveling to a high-risk region will continue.

  • Regions considered “high risk” will change as the situation evolves.
