HOW SAFE WILL VISITING OR GATHERING WITH OTHERS BE DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC?

Vaccination programs against COVID-19 are well underway. However, COVID-19 remains an important public health issue as it continues to spread in communities around the world, especially with the emergence of variants of concern. As a result, careful assessment before deciding to visit, gather, or meet with others remains vitally important.

Using the best available scientific evidence and the input of leading experts in infectious diseases, public health and epidemiology, this website has been developed by Ryerson University’s National Institute on Ageing (NIA) to help people of different ages and states of health better understand the factors that affect the risk of getting COVID-19 when visiting or gathering with others. Many of these same factors also apply to the risk of getting other respiratory infections like influenza.

Please take the next 3 minutes to answer this website’s short online risk calculator questions, based on your own personal understanding of the risk factors being discussed. If you’re unsure of what to select, choose the most applicable response or try to better assess the details surrounding the visit or gathering that you’re planning. Every visit, gathering and meeting is different, so it’s important to re-assess your risk level and your comfort level with risk as your situation changes. The tool can be re-visited at any time for a fresh assessment to help inform your next decision to gather or visit with others.

Upon submitting your answers, a personalized report will be generated to help you understand the level of risk associated with your planned visit or gathering, as well as give you tips on how to try and make your proposed visit or gathering as safe as possible for the remainder of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Note: Please always abide by local public health guidelines, and only consider gatherings that are currently allowed where you live.

The information you provide to access and use this website is collected anonymously for the purpose of providing you information about your possible level of risk of getting COVID-19 and to make improvements to this tool.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
