Beginning broadly, we know that the measures we have in place work. The research and evidence that we will build and continue to draw on will help inform how we provide advice to Canadians on how to adapt the measures we have in place.
In terms of masking, we continue to review our advice to Canadians. We recently did so. We continue to monitor work that is happening in other countries and in the research community. In the context of masking, we continue to advise that a non-medical mask with multiple layers, including a filter layer, remains a very good and useful approach to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
As I mentioned, we continue to monitor activities that are happening in other jurisdictions. Based on the evidence available to us today, our advice remains that in the context of variants of concern, the current masking advice remains appropriate.
