Ontario residents 18 years of age and older are now eligible to book a booster dose of a COVID-19 vaccine. Here's everything you need to know to book your shot.
The expanded eligibility was announced by Premier Doug Ford on Wednesday, amid a spike in cases and growing concerns around the Omicron variant.
A report issued Wednesday from Public Health Ontario suggests that the Omicron variant likely already accounts for more than 80 per cent of the COVID-19 cases being confirmed in the province each day.
Ontario’s Chief Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Kieren Moore, told Ontarians on Wednesday that a robust third dose strategy is critical given how fast the Omicron variant is spreading.
Starting Monday at 8 a.m., everyone over the age of 18 in Ontario will be able to book an appointment for a booster dose.
