Ontario, including Huron Perth, will move to Step 3 of the Provincial Roadmap to Reopen as of 12:01 on Friday, July 16, 2021.
Beginning next Friday, outdoor social gatherings of up to 100 people will be permitted, and indoor social gathering will increase up to 25 people.
Personal care services, including services requiring the removal of face coverings, will be allowed to resume, and businesses will reopen with capacity limited to the number of people that can maintain a physical distance of 2 metres.
The move to Step 3 is due to the great vaccination coverage that has been seen across the Province, including in Huron and Perth.
To date 74.4% of Huron Perth residents aged 12 and over have received 1 dose of vaccine and 44.7% are fully vaccinated.
For those 18 and over (the metric the province is using for the Roadmap to Reopen), 75.8% have received one dose and 48% are fully vaccinated.
HPPH asks that those who are between the ages of 18 and 39 and have yet to do so get their first and second dose of vaccine as soon as possible.
If you haven’t already book your appointment today. There are several spots available at HPPH clinics through their online booking system at www.hpph.ca/vaccinebooking as well as through many local pharmacies.
Anyone aged 12 and older who received their first dose of mRNA (Moderna or Pfizer) vaccine can book their second dose appointment for a future HPPH clinic at a shortened internal. The second dose must be at least 28 days after the first.
