La Niche des lionceaux Child Care Centre in West Nipissing is set to reopen tomorrow, July 27, after the entire child care centre population was dismissed on July 14, 2021, as one of its members tested positive for COVID-19.

Officials at the North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit say high-risk contacts have completed their self-isolation period, and no additional individuals from the child care centre have tested positive for COVID-19.

If you think you may have COVID-19 symptoms or have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive, first self-isolate and then use Ontario's Self-Assessment Tool to see if you need to seek further care. If you need further assistance, call your health care provider or the Health Unit at 1-844-478-1400. If you have severe symptoms, such as difficulty breathing, you should call 911 and mention your symptoms.
