03/21/2022

Kahnawà:ke Public Health and Public Safety would like to inform the community that Kahnawà:ke is currently experiencing multiple outbreaks and an overall spike of COVID-19 cases.

We are reminding the community that, although we are on the path of recovery, we must remain vigilant and not let our guard down. Wearing masks in public places and proper hand hygiene continue to be essential factors to limit spread, as well as ensuring quality ventilation while indoors.

The more contacts you have, the higher the risk. Please assess your own personal acceptable level of risk, and if you are sick or having symptoms, please stay home and get tested.

Also, a reminder that you can still get vaccinated or receive booster doses by appointment at Kateri Memorial Hospital Centre by calling 450-638-3930, extension 2243.

Also, please note that the third round of distribution of rapid tests is currently being coordinated and will be available to the community in the next couple of days. More information will be forthcoming.
