Ontario\u0027s New Democrats are calling on the provincial government to establish a permanent 10\u002Dday paid sick leave program.
NDP legislator Kristyn Wong-Tam said the isolation recommendation for those who are sick with monkeypox can be 21 days or potentially longer.
“The rates of infection are going up,” she said in a news conference on Tuesday. “This is why we’re raising the alarm bells that we cannot take any chances of staying quiet.” Public health officials say most cases are among men who report intimate contact with men but say anyone can get monkeypox.“Church and Wellesley Village was at the epicentre of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, and saw immense damage to main street businesses throughout the COVID-19 pandemic,” she said, referring to Toronto’s gay village.
She said interest in vaccination increased after the World Health Organization declared the illness a global health emergency.
