Ontario moves schools to online learning, bans indoor dining and issues new COVID capacity restricti
The Ontario government has issued several new COVID-19 public health measures that includes moving schools online, closures and capacity limits for businesses as the province struggles to contain the spread of Omicron.
Students and staff will not be returning to in-person learning this week. Schools will switch to remote learning starting on Wednesday for at least two weeks.
"All publicly funded and private schools will move to remote learning starting January 5 until at least January 17, subject to public health trends and operational considerations," the government said.
However, school buildings will be open for child-care operations, including emergency child care for in-person instruction for students with special needs who cannot learn remotely.
