In recent weeks, there has been a significant increase in respiratory viruses and illnesses in our communities. According to the Thunder Bay District Health Unit, the levels of illness have increased even over pre-pandemic levels. There has been an early start to flu season in our area, as well as increasing levels of COVID-19 cases.  

In order to mitigate the impact of these viruses we encourage staff and students to 

  1. Stay home if you are sick 

Unsure what to do? Use an online assessment tool: 
  https://www.ontario.ca/self-assessment/ or Ontario.ca/school-screening 

  1. Wear a mask & wash your hands regularly 

Masks are available in each building and on each campus.     

  1. Get vaccinated for the flu and COVID-19 

Visit TBDHU.com/covidclinics or https://www.tbdhu.com/GettingTheFluSHot for where to access vaccines.
