To avoid the seemingly vast amount of incorrect information that is circulating about this corona virus it is strongly recommended that we look to official sources for the latest and most up to date information.

Only official sources should be considered as they have the latest status on COVID-19. Unofficial sources can be out of date and may even contain factually incorrect information.

Official government sources are recommended as these will contain the most up to date and most accurate information.

Three of the best sources of information are:

• Government of Canada
  
• Government of Ontario
  
• Halton Region

• World Health Organization
  
• Centre for Disease Control
