Ontario’s top doctor urges mask-wearing, warns mandate could return amid rising COVID-19 cases
Description
October 13, 2022
Ontario’s top doctor has warned that COVID-19 cases and the approach of winter could further jeopardize the province’s struggling health-care system, forcing the Ford government to potentially re-implement a mandatory masking policy if the situation worsens. In an interview with ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½, Dr. Kieran Moore, Ontario’s medical officer of health, urged people to get vaccines, boosters and wear a mask to avoid an "unmanageable surge" in hospital admissions.
