Unlike people working in essential services who need to show proof of their employment, no proof will be required for this group. Dubé said that the government will be relying on an honour system. If there are some individuals that try to cheat the system, that s unavoidable, said Dubé. We have to trust people.
He said that everyone will have access to a vaccine in a matter of weeks and Quebecers understand that they must wait their turn out of respect for others.

The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) is considering whether to change its recommendation that the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine not be offered to anyone under the age of 55.
Health Canada announced earlier this week the vaccine will remain authorized for all adults in Canada after the country reported its first case of blood clots linked to the shot.
The agency says the new and extremely rare blood clotting syndrome may be linked to the vaccine, but they concluded the benefits of the shot still far outweigh any risks.
