Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in Québec

Gradual resumption of activities

In the coming weeks, activities will gradually resume in Québec. Consult the page Gradual resumption of activities under the COVID-19-related pause.

If you are worried about COVID‑19 or if you have flu-like symptoms or gastroenteritis symptoms or similar to COVID‑19, you can call 418-644-4545, 514-644-4545, 450-644-4545, 819-644-4545 and 1-877-644-4545 (toll free) elsewhere in Québec. For the hearing impaired (TTY), call 1-800-361 9596 (toll free).

If you have these symptoms:

• Do not go to a medical clinic unless you have first obtained an appointment.
• If your condition allows you to do so, call 1-877-644-4545 to be referred to the right resource. 
• Visit the emergency room only if you have difficulty breathing (you have difficulty breathing when resting or are unable to breathe when lying down).

If you do not have any of these symptoms and you have a health problem, you can consult a health professional, even during the pandemic. It is especially important to continue your medical follow-up if you have a chronic disease, heart disease, cancer or any other disease or condition that requires regular health follow-up.
