With the updated federal and provincial guidance related to the importance of masking indoors, issued in response to an autumn surge in respiratory illnesses, the County of Essex is again implementing a masking policy in its facilities.

As of 8:00am on Tuesday, medical grade surgical masks will be required in County of Essex facilities. This applies to all staff, as well as members of the public visiting County of Essex facilities. Medical grade surgical masks will be available at building entrances.

The facilities covered by the masking policy include the Civic Centre, county road maintenance buildings, Essex County Library branches, Essex-Windsor EMS stations and Sun Parlor Home, where masking requirements have remained in place since early in the COVID-19 pandemic. Essex-Windsor EMS paramedics have also continued to mask during all interactions with patients.
