The amount of Pfizer vaccine coming into the district is expected to drop over the next few weeks.
The medical officer of health Dr. Janet DeMille tells us there is now some uncertainty with the supplies that we will be getting.
“The supply and availability of vaccine is changing for us, we are getting more AstraZeneca to the region but at the same time it looks like our Pfizer amounts are going to be decreasing,” notes DeMille.
It comes as the Ford government continues to change its course on vaccine distribution to focus on provincial COVID-19 hotspots.
DeMille does not believe they will be able to administer the 7,500 shots per week they have been doing over the last several weeks adding “Just how that is all going to play out, we’re just getting the details from the province on what the supply is.”
The health official maintains they will continue to vaccinate as many people as possible.
