詹嘉禮市議員 ： COVID-19每日更新 – 2020年5月12日
如果你取消訂閱我的電郵你將無法收到我們以後派發免費口罩和洗手液的詳情。
我將會在5月15日晚上7時舉行一場電話會議，內容將談及長者如何應對COVID-19疫情的建議。
雖然我們所有人在疫情期間都面對著很多的挑戰，但長者在與此同時亦面對著弱勢社群面對的額外挑戰。這些難關包括如何貫徹愈趨嚴格的社交距離措施，和它們所帶來的孤獨感和沮喪感。
請將你想在電話會議期間發問的問題提交給我的助理，她的電郵地址為 This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.。有關如何參與會議的詳情將會在稍後公佈。
我很高興在昨日能夠與士嘉堡醫院聯網的急症醫生和醫學會第11區主席Lisa Salamon醫生合作，向120名在士嘉堡愛靜閣區內執業的醫生免費分發了12,000個口罩，240瓶洗手液和160個面罩
由於醫院、護老院和長期護理院優先獲得個人防護設備（PPE），現時為醫生辦公室和診所的供應變成十分緊絀。更多詳情請閱: 点击这里
我亦要感謝錫安建材和特億建材捐贈了口罩和洗手液，慷慨地為我們士嘉堡愛靜閣社區的健康和安全出一分力。

On May 15, 2020 at 7:00pm, I will be holding a teleconference to offer suggestions to seniors as they navigate COVID-19.
While all of us are dealing with the challenges posed by COVID-19, seniors are also dealing with being in one of the vulnerable categories. This vulnerability means that seniors are taking stricter social distancing measures, which is leading to feelings of loneliness and depression.
Please submit questions that you would like answered during the teleconference to my assistant at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. Call-in details will be provided later this week.
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of partnering up with Dr. Lisa Salamon, Emergency Physician at Scarborough Health Network and Chair of District 11 of the Ontario Medical Association and we distributied free 12,000 face masks, 240 bottles of hand sanitizer and 160 face shields to 120 doctors who are practicing in Scarborough-Agincourt.
Hospitals, seniors’ and long term care homes have been given priority for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), leaving doctor’s offices and clinics short.Read more..
I want to thank Zion Building Supplies and TESCO Building Supplies for donating the masks, and hand sanitizer. Their generosity is helping keep the people of Scarborough-Agincourt safe and healthy.
