Ontario marked a grim COVID-19 milestone Thursday as its virus-related death toll passed 8,000 and provincial health leaders sped up plans that could get more Canadians vaccinated in the coming months.
“The way out of the pandemic is vaccines, and the light at the end of the tunnel grows brighter every day,” said Ontario Health Minister Christine Elliott.
Ontario is forecasting everyone over the age of 18 will be able to book a shot by May 24.
The province planned to lower the age eligibility for mass vaccination clinics to 55 and older starting Friday.
