Starting January 4th , CK Public Health will be updating our COVID-19 current status page to include more information in a detailed summary report at 10:30am Monday to Friday. This information will still be located on our Current Situation COVID-19 webpage.
Our Epidemiologist has provided a virtual tour of the report in the video below:
The reasons for this shift in process are:
- it enables us to report through a single automated summary report,
- the automated report is updated after staff have entered, processed and extracted data from iPHIS, our mandatory reporting system for infectious diseases,
- confirmed case activity has been decreasing, and
- reduced staff capacity on the weekend.
Thank you for your continued diligence to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in Chatham-Kent!
