The public health units will stay in their new zones for a minimum of 28 days, or two COVID-19 incubation periods.

On Monday, the Middlesex-London Health Unit, Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit and Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health will move into the red-control zone.

Eastern Ontario Health Unit will move into the orange-restrict zone.

Finally, Leeds, Grenville, and Lanark District Health Unit will move into the yellow-protect zone.

Two regions will also be entering the grey-lockdown zone on Monday: York and Windsor-Essex. All other regions will remain in their current zones.

This comes as the province extends all COVID-19 orders under the Reopening Ontario Act until January 20, 2021.
