QUEBEC CITY, Jan. 13, 2022 \/CNW Telbec\/ –<\/strong> Quebec Premier Fran\u00e7ois Legault, accompanied by Health and Social Services Minister Christian Dub\u00e9, today announced the end of the curfew, effective January 17. He also announced the extension of the vaccination passport to certain businesses. These decisions follow recommendations from Public Health and take into account the encouraging progress of vaccination among the population.<\/p>\n

In order to better protect the population, and consequently the hospital system, an expansion of the vaccine passport to certain retail outlets was recently announced, including SAQ and SQDC stores. This expansion will continue at other stores, starting on January 24.<\/p>\n

It is therefore businesses with a surface area of more than 1,500 square metres that will have to impose it on their customers. The exception is businesses whose primary activity is the sale of groceries or pharmaceutical products.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that, in addition to the abolition of the curfew between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. as of Monday 5 a.m., the measure requiring the closing of non-essential businesses on Sundays will end after Sunday, January 16.<\/p>\n

Quotes:<\/p>\n

“The evolution of the situation allows us to see that the measures we put in place at the end of December have worked. It also allows us to make some relief to those measures, while remaining cautious. Obviously, we are anxious to resume all sports, to open all restaurants, to resume all shows. But we have to do it gradually to make sure that the contagion doesn’t start again. Let’s be patient and cautious, we’re going in the right direction!”<\/p>\n

Fran\u00e7ois Legault, Premier of Quebec<\/em><\/p>\n

“Although the situation is extremely delicate in terms of the capacity of our hospital system, many measures are in place to provide the population with the services it needs. Now, on the pandemic side, we must turn to vaccination, and the majority of citizens have made a remarkable contribution to this so far. I invite those who are not yet vaccinated to join us in ending this crisis, and I hope that the incentives announced today will convince them.<\/p>\n

Christian Dub\u00e9, Minister of Health and Social Services<\/em><\/p>\n

Highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is now recommended that people who have already had COVID-19 receive a booster dose of the vaccine as soon as possible. This dose will be offered to all adults starting tomorrow. It should also be noted that several incentives were announced earlier today to find solutions to the staffing shortage in the health and social services network.<\/p>\n
