With COVID-19 vaccine shortages popping up more in recent days and weeks, Ontario’s Premier is pleading for help from the federal government and Health Canada to ramp up distribution as cases arise.
On Friday, Doug Ford elaborated
on Phase 1 of his government’s vaccine rollout, saying that while Ontario continues to inoculate more frontline workers and long-term care residents than any other province, they’re in desperate need of resupply.
“I spoke with the Prime Minister last [Thursday] night about the need for more reliable vaccine supply to meet our rapidly growing capacity,” Ford said.
