Quebec Health Minister Christian Dube said Tuesday that while COVID-19 numbers are stable in the province, the month of September will be monitored as given the return to school and work, cases can be expected to rise. He stressed people to be sure to still get tested if they develop symptoms and to get vaccinated if they have not yet done so.

Dube also said that while there had been some questions raised about whether there could be an expansion of the COVID-19 vaccine passport to other sectors, there was no further intention to do so at this time but they would monitor how successful the passport is in terms of COVID-19 spread.

As of Wednesday, proof of vaccination will be required to access certain non-essential services, including restaurants, gyms and bars. Quebecers 13 and older must be fully vaccinated to take part in certain activities.

The update also comes after the province recommended a third shot of the vaccine for people who are immunocompromised or undergoing dialysis.
