The virus is primarily transmitted from person to person by contact with contaminated droplets released into the air when an infected person talks, coughs or sneezes. These contaminated droplets can travel up to two metres and reach people nearby.

The virus can also be spread by contact with contaminated surfaces or objects. Droplets expelled by an infected person can land on surfaces, and the virus can survive there anywhere from several hours to several days. An infected person can also contaminate their hands by touching their face, thereby increasing the risk of contaminating surfaces they touch. Other people who touch these surfaces or objects can contaminate their hands. And if they then bring them to their face, they can infect themselves. By staying two metres away from others at all times, washing your hands often and wearing a mask, we can reduce the risk of contamination.

Let’s continue to protect ourselves. QuÊbec.ca/coronavirus 1 877 644-4545

In Memoriam

Mary Elizabeth Poulos (née Kolomeychuk) October 27, 1929 to July 21, 2020 The world lost a true original last week, a mom of four, grandmother of five, and great-grandmother of four. Mary was known for her creativity, love of gardening, and making wicked cinnamon buns, perogies and cabbage rolls. Our mom had an affinity for artists, animals, and outliers. After retiring from a career helping physically and intellectually challenged adults learn new trades, she retired to Quebec’s Eastern Townships with her husband Peter, who passed away in 1989. She carried on with her volunteer work and many projects including homemade scarecrows, a different one gracing her vegetable garden every year. She had an unending curiosity about absolutely everything. She loved antiques, newspapers, daisies and ladybugs. She hated red roses. Many a summer was spent in her sprawling farmhouse enjoying bonfires and watching the fireflies darting through the grasses down by the creek, enjoying a glass or two of her homemade wine. She leaves to mourn her surviving children Lyn, Ricky, Carmen, grandchildren Shayne, Jenna, Zachary, Jacob, Damon, her greatgrandchildren and many extended family members across Canada. Sadly, Mary’s third child Michael predeceased her in 2012. Due to COVID-19, there will be no immediate service.
