The Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health Unit (WDGPH) has issued an update to its order mandating that businesses require all those who enter commercial establishments to wear face coverings. Josh MacEwen looked at the details and examines whether local leadership’s expressed wishes to delay the order are in the best interest of the public.
Businesses are also required to have alcohol-based hand rub available for visitor use at all entrances and exits. Visitors are expected to make use of the hand rub upon entering and exiting the commercial establishment.
