Delta is Different: Prevent Transmission Today!
The delta variant of SARS CoV-2 is highly transmissible, more infectious and severe, and already driving a case surge across the country. Strategic controls are needed now.
What does this all mean for Canada, and how can we make a difference in the workplaces and gathering spaces of Ontario, especially in the context of school (and business) re-opening and the likely resulting community surge? Which controls and other approaches will keep workers (and families) safe? This information is more critical than ever.
Join us to learn, reflect and ask questions on the strategic application of controls and practices.
