If you have symptoms like fever, cough, or sore throat, stay home, and avoid gatherings, to prevent spreading illness. Stay home until you are fever-free, without fever-reducing medication, and your symptoms have been improving for 24 hours or 48 hours after your last episode of vomiting or diarrhea. If you are sick, avoid visiting people at high risk of severe illness, including those in hospitals, long-term care, or retirement homes.

Ottawa Public Health reminds residents to get vaccinated ahead of the holidays.
Please read the PSA here: ottawa.ca/en/city-hall...
The holiday season is a special time to connect and celebrate with family and friends. But it’s also respiratory illness season – a time of year when respiratory viruses like COVID-19, influenza (flu), and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are circulating alongside the common cold and other viruses. The COVID-19 and flu vaccines are recommended for people aged six months and older. They can safely be received at the same time.  These vaccines are particularly effective in preventing severe illness, complications, and hospitalizations.  Pharmacies continue to be the primary access point for both vaccines for people two years of age and older with many pharmacies offering walk-in services and appointments. OPH Clinics are for eligible groups facing barriers like newcomers without OHIP and children under five years of age and their household members. Vaccines are available by appointment at OPH Community Clinics and on a drop-in basis, based on capacity, at OPH Neighbourhood Health and Wellness Hubs. Visit our website to book! Wash your hands often or use alcohol-based hand sanitizer Avoid touching your face and cover your cough or sneeze Disinfect frequently touched surfaces
