Five COVID, Cold and Flu Care Clinics Coming to Niagara

Clinics will be in Niagara Falls, Welland, St. Catharines and Niagara-on-the-Lake

The Niagara-Ontario Health Team-Équipe Santé Ontario Niagara (NOHT-ÉSON) is opening up five COVID, cold and flu care clinics in the area. 

Health care professionals will be on hand to test, assess and provide treatment for people with respiratory illnesses. 

"If a person has symptoms of a respiratory illness, they are encouraged to call their primary care provider as the first option for guidance and care," said Dr. Darija Vujosevic, Primary Care Clinical Lead for the NOHT-ÉSON. "However, if a person does not have a primary care provider or their symptoms are worsening, they should reach out, book an appointment at a CCFCC, and we can determine next steps. These clinics are an important resource for Niagara area families during this COVID, cold and flu season. Of course, should someone develop severe symptoms, they are urged go to their nearest emergency department or call 9-1-1."
