The Ministry of Health and Wellness is advising owners of businesses to contact the polyclinic in their catchment area if their establishments were exposed to COVID-19, or have a confirmed positive case.

They must immediately call the Medical Officer of Health at the polyclinic for direction on how to advise their staff.  Additionally, owners should have a full staff list prepared when they contact the polyclinics.

This process is in keeping with following protocols for testing, where primary contacts are identified and tested first in relation to positive cases. (BGIS)
