The Ontario government has developed a $2.8 billion COVID-19 fall preparedness plan to ensure the province's health care, long-term care and education systems are prepared for the immediate challenges of the fall, including a second wave of COVID-19 and the upcoming flu season. Keeping Ontarians Safe: Preparing for Future Waves of COVID-19 will enable the province to quickly identify, prevent and respond to surges and waves of the virus to protect the health and safety of all Ontarians.
The plan includes expanded testing and contact management; flu immunizations, managing outbreaks and preparing for surges, reducing the service backlogs, recruiting, training, and supporting healthcare workers, supporting long term care homes, schools and childcare centres
