H1N1 Influenza Update
The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board takes direction from our provincial and local health authorities on health-related issues and the board continues to work closely with Peel Regional Health as well as the Wellington/Dufferin/Guelph Health Unit on matters related to the H1N1 issue.
Both health authorities reinforce the regular precautions that should be taken to prevent seasonal influenza which includes frequent hand washing, covering the mouth with arm or sleeve when sneezing or coughing and staying home when ill.
If students or staff are concerned because they are experiencing symptoms of respiratory illness or flu, then they should contact their health care provider or contact TeleHealth at 1-866-797-0000.
