The Ministry of Health and Wellness has advised that all health centres have been closed for today.

Staff of these facilities are to check with their parish Emergency Operations Centres to find out whether they are to be deployed elsewhere.

Persons with chronic diseases and those requiring immunisations, antenatal care and/or other services are to contact the health centre as soon as services are restored to get a new appointment.

The ministry says every effort is being made to restore services in the shortest possible time.

The cancer treatment centres at Cornwall Regional Hospital and St Joseph's Hospital are also closed today.

Public hospitals remain open for emergency cases and deliveries.
