“The current increase in COVID-19 cases in our region is very concerning and is resulting in greater risk of community transmission. Proof of vaccination requirements reduce the risk for individuals who attended Quinte Bowl on November 27, but I am urging anyone who was there on this date to closely monitor for symptoms of COVID-19. If you have symptoms, even mild ones, get tested,” said Dr. Ethan Toumishey, Acting Medical Officer of Health at HPEPH.
