City of Brandon COVID-19 Vaccination And Testing Policy Update

Brandon, MB – As part of our commitment to ensure the health and safety of our residents and employees, the City of Brandon is strongly recommending all residents to wear masks at all civic facilities, including on Brandon Transit, as of Tuesday, March 15, 2022. 

Individuals visiting any civic facility are asked to respect the principles of social distancing, hand sanitizing, physical barriers, wearing masks and self-assessment criterion that have been put in place for the safety of all.   

Any member of the public that is feeling unwell or are exhibiting ANY COVID-19-related health symptoms (fever, cough, runny nose, sore throat) SHOULD NOT attend any City of Brandon facility and should, instead, visit sharedhealthmb.ca/covid19/screening-tool or contact Health Links at 204-788-8200 or 1-888-315-9257 for advice.  

City of Brandon staff will also adhere to these Public Health guidelines and protocols to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. 

“Shifting toward the next phase of the pandemic and enduring without mandated health restrictions, the City of Brandon is very aware COVID-19 still exists in our community and we urge people to consider those most vulnerable to the virus”, says city manager Ron Bowles.
