The following message was distributed to 69传媒students, staff, and faculty on March 3, 2021, to their @upei.ca emails and via the 69传媒SAFE app.

The 69传媒 wishes to update students, faculty, and staff following today鈥檚 announcement by the PEI Chief Public Health Office (PEI-CPHO).

During a public briefing on Wednesday, March 3, Dr. Heather Morrison, Chief Public Health Officer, advised that the modified 鈥渞ed alert level鈥 restrictions will cease at midnight on March 3, 2021, but that Prince Edward Island will remain in the circuit breaker phase until 8 am on March 14, 2021.
