    Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit (SMDHU):

    “As of March 11, 2020 the World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 a pandemic. According to the World Health Organization, a pandemic is the worldwide spread of a new disease where most people do not have immunity. In other words, a pandemic refers to the geographic spread of a virus, not its severity.

    What matters is how households, communities, organizations and businesses prepare for potential disruption to normal life if the virus starts to infect more people locally. Visit our Be Prepared page for tips that will help you, your family, your business or organization during a pandemic” –– from the March 12, 2020 Situation Summary - SMDHU
