Ontario's ability to rapidly scale up #COVID19 vaccination is impressive.
Dec 10: 78K administered, 7-day average 67K
Dec 23: 253K administered, 7 day average 180K. Wow.
This is a massive team effort.
Per-capita, this is up there with the fastest pace on the planet.

Dr. Collins, asked if there's anything he wishes NIH had done: "maybe we under-invested in research in human behavior..I never imagined a year ago that there would be 60 million people who refused/declined to get the vaccine because of misinformation & disinformation" @NewsHour

The life and tragic death of a fitness fanatic who refused the vaccine. He did triathlons, bodybuilding and mountain climbing and became sceptical of the #Covid19 jab. Then, at 42, he contracted the virus, by @thedalstonyears theguardian.com/society/2021… via @guardian #vaccination

If Michael Kovrig, a man who just spent 1,020 days in a Chinese prison, can make it a priority to get a #COVID19 vaccine (and use his notoriety to promote #vaccination to boot), surely no one else has an excuse for not doing so.
Today I had the honor of providing this man with his first dose at #LawlorPharmasave #pharmacy .
"I want everyone to know this, vaccines are the best way to combat this disease".

Since August 9, 100% of the patients admitted to our ICU with COVID-19 have been unvaccinated. Of those admitted to our medical units, all have been unvaccinated except one patient who was partially vaccinated.

For those dunking on the nail salon comment, a friendly reminder that the vast majority of people who do this job are women of colour . Women who we know have been the hardest hit economically during COVID. And we should be wanting to let them get back to work. – at Toronto, Ontario
The Premier says he's pushing the CMOH and the health table to potentially open up Step 2 earlier. says those discussions are current.

Many Canadians are asking how they can help/volunteer on the #COVID19 front.
High Impact: Please think about who may be eligible for vaccination (eg friends & neighbours). Help sign them up & get them to a vaccine clinic.
There are still many barriers & your help is needed.

We don't thank teenagers enough for the sacrifices they've made during this pandemic. They've given up proms, graduations, school sports, clubs and social lives, all to save seniors they've mostly never met. By @calphonso theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…
