As pediatric and adult infectious diseases physicians, we share the concerns of our colleagues from across disciplines about our health-care system’s capacity.

To date, Kingston Health Sciences Centre has cared for more hospitalized and critically ill COVID-19 patients from outside our region than from within.

Now is not the time to relax most restrictions. These measures must directly support people and communities most at risk of COVID-19.
