I understand that the photos of people in Trinity Bellwoods were disappointing today. It was a beautiful day & we all want to enjoy our city together, but this could be selfish & dangerous behaviour that could set us back. (1/3)

Toronto Public Health will regularly report workplaces that are closed under the new Section 22 Order. Our first priority is to identify workplaces that fall under the Order. This affects people’s jobs. It must be done carefully.

Thank you @checkupcbc for sharing these stories of compassion and acts of kindness in our city at a very challenging time
Mr Rogers once said "When I was a boy & I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say, 'Look for the helpers. You’ll always find people who are helping.'"
Today @checkupcbc, we celebrate ppl helping us get thru this, in big or small ways. Who is your #COVID19 hero?

#COVID19 is spreading at serious levels. We are now seeing the consequence of too many ppl spending too much time together in Dec. & esp. during holidays. The more we stay apart from ppl we don't live with, the better we can control #COVID19 & save lives: bit.ly/3bty2ZP

We can’t ignore #COVID19. Life has changed & we must choose to live differently for now & follow steps for self-protection: watch distance, wear a mask, wash hands, don’t gather in large groups & protect each other. Read my remarks from today's briefing: bit.ly/2ZWejvq
