As calls continued to grow for the province to bring back masking rules for classrooms and other spaces, there were unconfirmed reports circulating Thursday that the province was considering introducing a new mask mandate early next week — something Moore has said he would put thought into if the situation worsened at hospitals.
The hospital’s director for critical care and surgical services appeared in a video announcing the second pediatric ICU and asking people to practise masking and other public health measures against a backdrop of crying children in critical care. For now, he said he is strengthening his message for people to wear masks when indoors and in crowded places, along with getting vaccinated, staying home while sick and washing their hands.“We are in communication with Toronto, waiting to hear what they say, while increasing our messaging — short of section 22. That is for further consideration.”
