Looking for advice in Covid-19 era

I'm looking for advice on how to handle a tenant who is late on rent. The covid-19 protections did not go into effect until March 17 and she is late on March 1st payment. So I should be able to evict. I've already served 3-day notice on March 14th and she hasn't responded after 5 days. She has been consistently late for months, this time I think she is too far behind.

If I proceed with eviction is it still valid with the covidid-19 rules? I'm worried that while covid-19 is an issue I will not be able to rent a vacant property. My long term plan is to have the place vacant in 2021, renovate and sell in 2021. I don't want to do this in 2020 because I already sold 1 property this year and the tax hit would be too high to have 2 in one year.

Appreciate any advice
