TORONTO Thousands of Ontarians are getting their COVID-19 vaccines not at pharmacies or doctors offices, but at a clinic pulled together by a construction company through a public-private partnership. The clinic run by Mississauga, Ont.-based EllisDon has seen more than 15,000 people book appointments, scheduled between May 19 and 26. We re completely full. And we just have families, kids, community all getting shots, and the emotions here are so high, said Steve Chaplin, vice-president of health, safety and environment. It s so powerful. It s just such a great feeling for us as a company to be able to sponsor that. EllisDon is one of several companies running their own vaccine clinics. Others include Amazon, Maple Leaf Foods and Maple Lodge Farms, though those companies are not currently offering shots to community members.
