Public Health: Local municipalities experiencing Covid cases

Numbers of Covid-19 appear to be continuing to rise in Grey-Bruce according to statistics on the Grey-Bruce Public Health Unit site updated October 28th (2022).

In a disclaimer, Public Health states that:

“This dashboard does not reflect an accurate community profile; it only reflects high risk settings.

We discourage the public from using these numbers to make decisions about individual risk or making conclusions on the COVID-19 situation.

The rationale for posting this dashboard is to respond to allegations of a lack of transparency from the health unit.

With the high-immunity level due to vaccination and post-infection, and the less severe variant, we are in a positive position to progress towards recovery safely.

Discontinuing the situation report was a step towards recovery, specifically to reassure the public and reduce the unnecessary anxiety generated by continuous monitoring.

We encourage the public to consider taking the vaccine when eligible, avoid crowds, and remain vigilant.”
