Sarnia-Lambton Transitions to Orange-Restrict Level

Sarnia-Lambton’s COVID-19 Response Framework includes five zones or levels of public health measures, and yesterday the area transitioned into the Orange-Restrict Level. The region will stay at this level for at least two weeks before the government will reevaluate the situation.

The Orange-Restrict Level calls for intermediate measures which includes small social gatherings, organized public events with 50 people indoors and 100 people outdoors, and restaurants open with a 50 person limit and a 10 PM curfew. It also allows for personal care services when masks can be worn and the opening of sports and recreational facilities.

The Lambton COVID-19 Immunization Task Force has also reported that all long-term care and high risk retirement home residents in Lambton County who wanted one have received the COVID-19 vaccine.
