All I want for Christmas is a booster shot, rapid test kit and PCR appointment

With Dec. 25 just days away, it's not gifts that are top of mind for many Ontarians. Their wish list consists of a booster appointment, followed by PCR and rapid COVID-19 tests.
It's time to re-write the lyrics for the holiday classic 'All I want for Christmas.'
With Dec. 25 just days away, it's not gifts that are top of mind for many Ontarians.
Their wish list consists of a booster appointment, followed by PCR and rapid COVID-19 tests.
With the Omicron variant spreading quickly through the province, people are desperate to get that third dose of vaccine.
"I know there's a lot of frustration out there with getting an appointment," says Jeff Yurek, the MPP for Elgin-Middlesex London.
Yurek, who is also a pharmacist, was at his family's pharmacy in St. Thomas, Ont. helping give booster shots just days after Ontario Premier Doug Ford called for "all hands on deck to help."
He encourages those in Southwestern Ontario to keep trying daily to get an appointment.
