COVID-19 Resources: Fact Checking

Please Note!

To the best of our knowledge, the information on this page is accurate and current. This page is not a substitute for medical advice, and library staff are not trained medical professionals. If you are feeling ill and are concerned about your symptoms, please contact your health care provider.

As of May 1, 2022, Loyalist College has lifted its masking and vaccination mandates. The College recognizes that individual comfort levels around masking will vary, and if you feel more comfortable wearing your mask, please know that your personal decision will be respected. Even when wearing a mask, it is important to wash your hands often, practice physical distancing, and to stay home if you are sick. For more information about how to wear a mask properly, check the HPEPH infographics about How to Wear a Mask Safely or visit Ontario.ca.
