Have questions?

We want to ensure you get the answers you need as quickly as possible.

Our current priority for calls are:

  • Health care providers who are seeking or reporting information.
  • Residents who have travelled to affected areas.
  • Residents who have recently travelled outside of Canada, including the United States AND are experiencing symptoms of novel coronavirus (COVID-19).
  • Close contacts of residents who have recently travelled outside of Canada and are experiencing symptoms of novel coronavirus (COVID-19); fever, coughing, and difficulty breathing.

If you have recently travelled and are experiencing symptoms exercise precaution by isolating yourself from others and immediately call your health care professional or Windsor-Essex County Health Unit @ 519-258-2146 ext. 1420.

Note: We are currently experiencing significant call volume on our phone lines.
