The Government of Ontario announced that starting September 22, 2021, individuals will be required to show proof of fully vaccinated status in order to gain access to certain businesses. While the regulations have not yet been published, the government has released key details concerning the plans.

"Fully vaccinated" means that an individual has received two shots of a government-approved vaccine, with the second shot having been received 14 or more days prior.

Access to the following businesses will be granted only if an individual provides proof of vaccination and a government-issued ID:

✅"Restaurants and bars (excluding outdoor patios, as well as delivery and takeout);
✅Meeting and event spaces, such as banquet halls and conference/convention centres;
✅Facilities used for sports and fitness activities and personal fitness training, such as gyms, fitness and recreational facilities with the exception of youth recreational sport;
✅Sporting events;
✅Concerts, music festivals, theatres

💉For people with OHIP card, they can get their COVID-19 vaccination receipt online through this website: https://covid19.ontariohealth.ca/

💉For people without an OHIP card - most of our students, need to call the Provincial Vaccine Booking Line at 1-833-943-3900 (available 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., 7 days a week).

The province is working on a "digital vaccine receipt" to be released at a later date. Until then, patrons will be required to show the paper or PDF copy of the vaccine receipt given to them when they received their vaccines.

The government stated that, in accordance with currently effective public health steps, masks will still be required for indoor spaces.

<Ontario schools are safe — but prepare for outbreaks, chief medical officer of health says>

Ontario schools are safe — but parents should be prepared for COVID-19 outbreaks and the possibility of curbing kids’ after-school activities if cases jump, says Ontario’s chief medical officer of health.

On Tuesday — as many students around the province began returning to in-person learning — Dr. Kieran Moore said he is “confident that the school setting itself is safe. We put in many precautions. We will see outbreaks, we will see activity in the schools, but they basically reflect what’s going on in the community.”

<Ontario says more than 10M people are now fully vaccinated in the province💉>

Ontario is reporting another 807 COVID-19 cases and six more deaths. Of the six, two of the deaths occurred over two months ago and is being reported as part of a data cleanup, according to the province’s latest report released Friday morning.

Ontario has administered 43,855 vaccine doses since its last daily update, with 20,871,664 vaccines given in total as of 8 p.m. the previous night.

According to the Star’s vaccine tracker, 10,865,297 people in Ontario have received at least one shot. That works out to approximately 83.4 per cent of the eligible population 12 years and older, and the equivalent of 73.1 per cent of the total population, including those not yet eligible for the vaccine.

<Ontario’s COVID-19 vaccine passport system will start Sept. 22>

When the system begins in three weeks, Ontarians will have to show a downloaded paper or digital receipt of vaccination to be verified with government-issued identification such as a driver’s license or photo health card.

On Oct. 22, that will change to a QR code and verification app now in development which officials said should streamline the process because impacted businesses, restaurants, and sports venues won’t have to check to see if patrons are two weeks past their second dose.

The system applies to patrons and customers of restaurants, bars, sports stadiums, gyms, and other non-essential venues, not to staff — although provincial officials said employers are “encouraged” to have vaccination policies.

UIS Care Service 🇨🇦

Welcome Back! : UIS would like to announce that there will be two specialized programs running as of the new school year 2021-2022!

“Student Adaptation Service” is an individual counseling service for both in-person and online students who feel isolated due to the prolonged period of the pandemic and “Catch–Up Program” is for overseas students having difficulties due to the time difference.

✅ Student Adaptation Service

UIS provides individual counselling services to our IN-PERSON students from the coming year 2021-2022. This specialized service is for students who feel isolated due to the prolonged period of the pandemic and are not used to having an interactive learning classroom environment. UIS also helps students with developing their learning skills and tips to adapt in Canada in the counselling meetings.

This service is for BOTH new students (mandatory at the beginning of their school year) and current students (optional) on both campuses. Students are always welcome to make appointments with a professional and experienced Canadian counsellor throughout the school year.

✅ Catch–Up Program

UIS understands the challenges students who reside overseas have regarding the time difference. From April 2021, UIS launched Catch- up Program for students overseas and it was a great success. They have been registered for an individual meeting with their teachers at a time that suits their schedule considering the time difference between Canada and their home country. Catch-up programs are run by classroom teachers in the morning time (ETS) from 8:30 a.m. to 9: 00 a.m. All hybrid students are welcome to join the program. You just need to message your teacher for your time slot!

<Ontario mandates COVID-19 vaccinations for teachers, doctors, nurses, and other public employees💉>

Teachers, doctors, nurses, and other public employees will face vaccination mandates as Premier Doug Ford takes a harder line in the fight against COVID-19.

Chief medical officer Dr. Kieran Moore detailed the sweeping changes for high-risk settings Tuesday, saying the time has come with the more highly contagious Delta strain driving a fourth wave of the pandemic and the return to school fast approaching.

“The Delta variant is highly transmissible and the experience of other jurisdictions show we must remain vigilant as we head into the fall,” Health Minister Christine Elliott said Tuesday in a nod to troubling surges in the United States and elsewhere.

The moves, including booster shots for the most vulnerable such as those with certain cancers, are intended to boost protections for hospital patients, long-term care residents and schoolchildren — particularly those not yet eligible for vaccines.

📍Eligible population (12+)

✅ 10,641,637 people have received at least one shot.

✅ That includes 9,612,865 people who have been fully vaccinated.

✅ 81.6% of 12+ with at least one shot

✅ 73.7% of 12+ fully vaccinated

<Ontario to run school-based COVID-19 vaccine clinics as the academic year begins💉>

COVID-19 immunization clinics will run in Ontario schools and nearby locations as the academic year begins, the province announced Monday in a bid to reach unvaccinated youth who are set to gather in classrooms next month.

The clinics are part of a “last mile” government vaccination strategy that aims to make it easy for students, as well as their families and school staff, to get their shots.

Education Minister Stephen Lecce said local public health units and boards will be required to host the clinics.

“By making vaccines more accessible, and with a cautious reopening in September following the expert advice of the Chief Medical Officer of Health, we will further bolster our fight against COVID-19 and variants,” Lecce said in a statement.

Youth aged 12 to 17 have the lowest vaccination rate of eligible age cohorts in Ontario, with 69 percent having received one dose and 55 percent fully vaccinated. There are currently no COVID-19 vaccines approved in Canada for children under 12
