  • Confirmed Cases of COVID-19 Following Vaccination in Ontario
    ENHANCED EPIDEMIOLOGICAL SUMMARY Confirmed Cases of COVID-19 Following Vaccination in Ontario: December 14, 2020 to September 18, 2021 Purpose This report describes confirmed cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) following COVID-19 vaccination. In order to identify cases with a symptom onset date after receipt of vaccine (i.e. post-vaccination cases), vaccine uptake data extracted from the Ontario Ministry of Health’s (MOH) COVaxON application was linked to case data extracted from the MOH’s Public Health Case and Contact Management Solution (CCM). Further details on the linkage are described in the Technical Notes. Data in this report include the most current information extracted from COVaxON as of September 20, 2021 at approximately 7:00 a.m. and CCM as of September 20, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. The report includes COVID-19 vaccinations and cases reported up to September 18, 2021. For additional information on COVID-19 vaccine uptake in the province, please visit the interactive Ontario COVID-19 Data Tool to explore vaccination uptake data by public health unit, age group and trends over time. The weekly report on COVID-19 Vaccine Uptake and Program Impact in Ontario further describes vaccine uptake across the province as well as the impact of the vaccination program on COVID-19 cases and severe outcomes. Background This report provides a focused analysis on confirmed cases of COVID-19 infection following COVID-19 vaccination. While vaccines provide a high degree of protection from COVID-19 infection, it is expected that a small proportion of vaccinated individuals may become infected as no vaccine is 100% effective.

  • IPAC Recommendations for Use of Personal Protective Equipment for Care of Individuals with Suspect Or Confirmed COVID‑19
    TECHNICAL BRIEF IPAC Recommendations for Use of Personal Protective Equipment for Care of Individuals with Suspect or Confirmed COVID‑19 6th Revision: May 2021 Introduction This document summarizes recommendations for infection prevention and control (IPAC) best practices for use of personal protective equipment (PPE) in health care settings. The document was updated to reflect the best available evidence at the time of writing. Updates to the document are noted in the Summary of Revisions. Please note that the Ministry of Health's Directive 5 is the provincial baseline standard for provision of personal protective equipment for hospitals, long-term care homes and retirement homes during COVID-19.1 Key Findings The primary mode of SARS-CoV-2 transmission is at short range through unprotected close contact and exposure to respiratory particles that range in size from large droplets, which fall quickly to the ground, to smaller droplets, also known as aerosols, which can remain suspended in the air. Outbreak case studies describe long-range transmission under the right set of favourable conditions (e.g., prolonged exposure in crowded, poorly ventilated spaces), implicating aerosols in transmission. Several studies demonstrate the effectiveness of current Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC) practices and personal protective equipment (PPE) when applied appropriately and consistently. Droplet and Contact Precautions continue to be recommended for the routine care of patients* with suspected or confirmed COVID‑19. Airborne Precautions should be used for aerosol generating medical procedures (AGMPs) planned or anticipated to be performed on patients with suspected or confirmed COVID‑19. Fully immunized staff should continue to use Droplet and Contact Precautions when caring for patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19.

From Local Innovation to Global Excellence: Proposal for a French-Language University in Ontario Report of the French-Language University Planning Board – June 30, 2017 June 30, 2017 The Honourable Deb Matthews Minister for Advanced Education and Skills Development Dear Minister, On December 13, 2016, the Planning Board for a French-language University had the pleasure of welcoming you and the Minister Responsible for Francophone Affairs at its very first meeting. You confirmed that this project was very important to the government and that the inclusion of a requirement to “identify governance models by and for francophones” in the Board’s terms of reference was not an empty gesture. You asked the Board to be innovative and strategic, and to suggest potential affiliations and partnerships with universities not only in Ontario, but also in Canada and around the world. In other words, you placed your trust in us. Today, June 30, 2017, we deliver this report with much pride after having completed our task under a very tight timeline.
