As Quebec’s provincial total of confirmed Covid-19 cases rose to 181 today, Premier Francois Legault and the provincial government have now banned all indoor and outdoor public gatherings with a few exceptions. 

When the provincial health emergency was first declared, smaller gatherings of less than 50 people were discouraged but still permitted; now, Legault is demanding that Quebecers take social distancing protocol much more seriously over the coming weeks. 

If you think you may have symptoms of Covid-19, you are encouraged to call 1-877-644-4545 to speak with a health care professional who will provide further instructions.
