There was confusion among both doctors and the public Sunday as walk-in COVID-19 tests were supposed to have ended provincewide but were still available at one Ottawa test site. But on Sunday, some people in Ottawa were still able to get tests without a previously scheduled appointment. Joanne Proulx said she didn't have to wait long to get a walk-in test for COVID-19 Sunday at the Brewer Arena assessment centre. Ottawa Public Health said Sunday morning the existing guidelines around the Brewer Arena site remained in effect, including at the walk-in centre.
