Loading ...CANADA – MANDATORY FACE MASK GUIDELINES RETURN FOR MUHC (McGill University Health Centre) HEALTH-CARE WORKERS
The McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) said it is bringing back universal mask-wearing guidelines for health-care workers due to an “important rise in the number of respiratory infections, including COVID-19, in both the community and within the MUHC.”
The masking guideline applies to health-care workers who provide direct care to patients and who interact with other employees in clinical care areas. They are not required, however, in other areas, such as hallways and cafeterias.
Hospitals that are part of the announcement include the Royal Victoria, the Montreal Children’s Hospital, and the Montreal General Hospital, among others.

SURELY THEY WOULDN’T ANNOUNCE THIS WITHOUT FULL & COMPLETE GOVERNMENT APPROVAL……….
