It will be available until Sunday, October 31. The results of this survey will be summarized in a report to the Corporate Services Committee and City Council in the winter of 2021. I encourage you to take a minute to provide some feedback on these signs!

We know the temptation to get back together with friends and party is great, but it is crucial that we all do our part to prevent the spread of COVID-19. ~ Dr.... Chris Mackie, Medical Officer of Health with the Middlesex-London Health Unit Read more: https://bit.ly/3hteOCS #LdnOnt #Middlesex How can you help prevent the spread of #COVID19? Ensure your social circle includes a maximum of 10 people and don’t interact directly with people who are outside your social circle. Maintain physical distancing of at least two metres from other people. Wear masks when in enclosed public places and physical distancing is not possible. Visit an Assessment Centre to get tested if you are concerned you have COVID-19 or that you may have been in close contact with someone who has COVID-19. Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for 15-20 seconds or use a waterless hand sanitizer with an alcohol content of at least 70 percent. Cover coughs and/or sneezes with your sleeve or cough into your elbow. Clean high-touch areas, such as doorknobs in public spaces, frequently. Download the COVID Alert mobile app to be notified if you may have been exposed to COVID-19, and to let others know if you test positive for the virus.
