Midhurst/May 4, 2022 – In response to the province’s gradual easing of COVID-19 public health measures, today, May 4, 2022, County of Simcoe Warden George Cornell joined other jurisdictions in ending the County’s emergency declaration.

“Throughout the pandemic, the situation evolved and changed greatly, and the emergency declaration enabled us to adapt and respond quickly to the dynamic nature of COVID-19,” said Warden George Cornell. “While the pandemic is not over, thankfully the Emergency Declaration is no longer required to manage our response and maintain our service levels.”

Simcoe County terminates COVID-19 emergency declaration.
