Same for each member of this community who has done their part to help keep each other safe.”“Be sure to check in on each other today. Send a text. Make a call. Go visit someone.”Meanwhile, Canada;s chief public health officer, Dr. Theresa Tam noted in a communiqué of her own that the virus has reached a relatively steady state in this country.
