Enjoying summer, but keeping an eye on COVID
The unseasonable weather has been the major theme of casual conversations this summer. And while it’s been a welcome break from the prevalence of pandemic chatter, we can’t close the door on COVID yet. Last Thursday, Canada’s Chief Public Health Officer Theresa Tam reported that “it is reasonable to expect we could see an increase in case numbers in the coming weeks.”
The next wave comes during the heart of summer so its impact will be mitigated by the warm weather and the opportunities for gathering outdoors. Immunization, including boosters, is also key to help protect our community. The Chamber is monitoring the situation and will strive to provide Greater Victoria’s business community with evidence-based information from reputable sources. We all have the resilience and experience to keep our economy and community moving forward.
