Public Health says COVID-19 continues to circulate widely.
Niagara Region Public Health is strongly recommending residents continue wearing masks in public.
In a statement, Public Health says COVID-19 infections remain high locally and anyone who can wear masks for the next few weeks should do so.
"While masks protect our self from infection, even more importantly they protect everyone around us, especially those who are more vulnerable. Masks work best at keeping us safe when everyone is wearing them, not just those who are at greater risk."
Residents are also being reminded that masks are still required if you have COVID-19 but are on day 6-10 of your infection and have been released from self-isolation, or if you are a contact of a confirmed case but are not required to isolate.
Throughout Ontario, masks are still required on public transit and in health care settings, long term care and retirement homes and congregate care settings.
Currently, Niagara Health is reporting 25 patients with the virus, including four in the ICU.
The region also has 1,080 active cases.
