We encourage you to access the health provider hotline and website regarding questions about the outbreak, protocols, preparedness, and more. The toll free number is 1-866-212-2272, and the health provider website is updated regularly with useful resources. An important reminder that the health provider website and the toll free number are for you – as a health professional – and not for members of the general public.
