The Grey Bruce Health Unit Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Ian Arra, is renewing the Order issued July 17, 2020, ordering all Commercial Establishments in Grey Bruce, to the fullest extent possible that they, for all the following:
-
ensure effective measures are in place to maintain physical distancing of 2 metres amongst all employees and clients;
-
ensure the availability of alcohol-based hand rub at all entrances and exits; and,
-
make the best effort (verbal) to restrict persons from entering the premises or remaining within the premises if not wearing a face covering. Turning away or refusing a customer is not required under this Order.
This Order comes into effect on Friday, 11th day of September, 2020, at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time and shall remain in effect for 4 weeks (being 28 calendar days) from that time. This Order may be rescinded, amended or extended by further Order.
This Order is made pursuant to Section. 22 of the Health Protection and Promotion Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. H. 7 as amended.
“The preventative measures, as identified in the renewed Order, reduce the risk of cases and outbreaks of COVID-19 in Grey and Bruce Counties,” said Dr. Ian Arra, Grey Bruce Medical Office of Health. “The community continues to embrace the use of face coverings as a part of their personal routine along with physical distancing and other public health recommendations. There is a great need to continue to do everything possible to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
