| COVID-19 Testing |
|
As of December 30, 2021, the province of Ontario announced the restriction of COVID-19 PCR testing criteria to specific residents who are at greatest risk for spreading COVID-19 or experiencing severe outcomes related to COVID-19.
As PCR testing will be limited for some residents, Peterborough Public Health is asking residents to assist them in keeping the community safe and use your best judgement when it comes to self-isolation and getting tested for COVID-19.
Guidance is available on the Peterborough Public Health website to provide direction for isolation, testing, and identifying high risk contacts.
