Province Expands Its COVID-19 Vaccine Reach

Even more people will be able to register for COVID-19 vaccine in Ontario.

The provincial government says as of Monday, at 8am, anyone over the age of 18, who lives in one of the 114 hotspots, can now book provincially or through the local health unit.

This is due to an increased supply of vaccine to Ontario.

As of Thursday at 8am, it expands again to other groups in every community.

The government says registration opens to anyone over 50, or has a high-risk health condition, is someone who cannot work from home in Group One (including remaining elementary and secondary school teachers) or are First Nations, Inuit or Metis.

The province adds this is to help its plan to get 50% of vaccine to hotspots by the next two weeks.

We have reached out to the Thunder Bay District Health Unit for comment.
