COVID-19 testing clinics and government offices are closed but many businesses and services are still open on Victoria Day in P.E.I., including grocery stores and the Charlottetown Mall. 

Islanders with COVID-19 symptoms are being asked to self-isolate until Tuesday, May 25, when testing sites will reopen at their normal times and locations.

“People who need care due to symptoms should contact their family doctor or call 8-1-1 to be referred to a Cough and Fever Clinic,” a provincial news release said on Friday. “In cases of emergencies, please call 9-1-1 or visit an emergency department.”

More details can be found on the Government of P.E.I.’s COVID-19 site.
