As Ontario is set to move ahead with its reopening plan starting Monday, Ontario’s Chief Medical Officer of Health has taken a different tone, saying its time to start learning to live with the virus.
Dr. Kieran Moore said life has changed over the past 2 years with a significant amount of fear and adjustments need to be made to change some of the thinking now that there is better access to tools to deal with the pandemic.
Dr. Moore adds its important to see the impact COVID-19 has had on mental and physical health as well as socially and economical.
Dr. Moore admitted some precautions taken over the past 2 years were “maybe too cautious.”
Further measures are also set to be eased in February and March.
