About the measures in force
Walk-in vaccination
In order to encourage people to receive their first, second or third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, several vaccination centers now offer walk-in vaccination.
COVID-19 Home kit
Testing
Over the next few days, boxes of self-tests will be given to high school, adult general education and vocational students so that they can test at home if they have symptoms of COVID-19.
Later in February, all preschool and elementary students will receive a new box of five self-tests.
Reporting the result of a rapid test
This allows for a better assessment of the evolution of the epidemiological situation in the community. You must complete the reporting form for each rapid test performed, whether the result is positive or negative. Invalid results should not be reported.
Report the result of your home rapid test.
