Covid 19 Update - March 2021

It was agreed by Kirk Session (based on recommendations by PTI) that the following criteria must be in place before we consider opening:  “that Ottawa must spend 3 consecutive weeks in the yellow zone before PTI and Kirk Session consider re-opening the sanctuary for worship.”​  This is based on the provincial system which says that in the yellow zone:   

 

Weekly incidence rate is 10 to 24.9 per 100,000

Percent positivity is 0.5 to 1.2%

Rt is approximately 1

Repeated outbreaks in multiple sectors and settings or increasing number of large outbreaks

Level of community transmission and non-epi linked cases stable or increasing

As always, we will be abiding by OPH guidelines as well.
