FREDERICTON -- As travel restrictions relax across Canada, the Maritime provinces are still pushing vaccination and preparing for the next phases of the pandemic. Vaccination rates in New Brunswick are hurling towards 40 per cent, with 39.6 per cent of eligible New Brunswickers are now fully vaccinated and 78.3 per cent of those eligible have received their first dose. "I think that people need to book the appointment they can get,” said Jake Reid, President of the New Brunswick Pharmacy Association. “Take the first available appointment to take whatever vaccine is offered. It’s only the two MRNA vaccines right now the Pfizer vaccine and the Moderna vaccine.”
