I am so very thankful for every single member of this community & the work we've done over the past 3 years.
I am reflecting on the lessons we've learned & the tools we've acquired over the past 3 years, and how they can help public health be ready for what the future may hold.

Be ready, get boosted!

December is a social month. Getting your booster is a great way to prepare for holiday gatherings and to protect the most vulnerable members of your group.

I just got back from getting my annual flu vaccination. I want to take this opportunity to share with you why I urge everyone to stay up to date on their vaccinations; it is the best way to protect yourself, your loved ones, and the health care system. youtube.com/watch?v=F5-7dA…

We are in a respiratory season unlike any previous, with COVID-19 remaining high, and influenza and other respiratory viruses circulating again after a period of less exposure. Wearing masks helps control all respiratory viruses. Thanks for doing your part, Ottawans.
