Stricter COVID-19 measures are coming into effect across Ontario. Premier Doug Ford announced that masks will now be required in all regions across the province.
Masks will also become mandatory in public spaces including shopping centres, public transit and at work if you can’t keep 2-meters from others.
Starting Sunday (October 4th) assessment centers will stop offering walk-in tests to help work through a backlog of tests.
Ford also says the province is putting a “pause” on 10-person social bubbles and is advising people to have close contact only with those in their own households.
