Turning a corner: Clarington to lift COVID-19 facility entry restrictions March 1

Following regulations set out by the Province in its roadmap to reopen, Clarington is lifting more COVID-19 facility entry requirements as we turn the corner and begin to return to regular operations. Starting on March 1, residents and patrons entering a Clarington facility will no longer have to show the enhanced proof of vaccination or fill out the online COVID-19 screening. This is consistent with the Provincial mandate lifting more public health restrictions as public health indicators improve.

As we ensure public safety, residents will still wear a mask indoors (unless you have a medical exemption) and follow all handwashing protocols until further notice. We will be eliminating active screening upon entry. Instead, Clarington will have signage throughout our facilities reminding residents to self-screen for any COVID-19 signs and symptoms. We ask that you assess your health and refrain from coming to a public facility if you have any symptoms of COVID-19.

Thank you for your ongoing support and cooperation. Clarington is excited to turn this corner with our community after a long two years. As always, your health is our top priority, and we will continue to follow all Provincial Public Health mandates.
