The effects of COVID-19 can be long-lasting. For some people, the signs are very obvious and for others, they are not. If you have had COVID-19 and it has been more than three months since your first symptoms, please take our online assessment at myCOVIDrecoveryNS.ca.

We have seen the bump in covid-related hospitalizations already. I hope there will be a quick reassessment and adjustment to the relaxed public health measures.
It appears we are at the very beginning of a spring COVID wave in Ontario. Wastewater signals from many parts of the province are up. It is currently unclear how large this wave (or wavelet?) will be, but it would not be surprising to see a bump in hospitalizations soon.
