Public Notice- March 2, 2021

Due to weather conditions on March 2, 2021, Labrador-Grenfell Health is extending its drive-thru testing site in St. Anthony. The clinic was initiated out of an abundance of caution following a positive COVID-19 test of a healthcare worker at the Charles S. Curtis Memorial Hospital.

We would like to thank the public for their outstanding support and the continued adherence to Public Health directives. We understand this is a difficult time and want to reassure you that the health and safety of residents in the Labrador-Grenfell Health region continues to be our priority throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

Everyone has a responsibility to monitor for symptoms and prevent the spread of COVID. The public is reminded that we are currently in Alert Level 4 and the best defense against COVID-19 is through physical distancing, hand hygiene, and wearing a mask.
