"Case and contact management is progressing as planned. With the current trajectory, we should be able to regain full control over case and contact management by the end of the day tomorrow, April 17.
The risk of COVID-19 in Grey Bruce remains relatively low, and should not
impact patient care for Grey Bruce residents in health facilities outside Grey Bruce.
Similarly, essential travel to other health unit jurisdictions, should not be denied for Grey Bruce residents." Dr. Ian Arra, MOH
