​​​​​​It was on March so hopefully he will hear soon. Thanks for the info

Here you go :)https://covid-19.ontario.ca/get-covid-19-vaccine

If you only need a second dose

You cannot currently book an individual second dose online through the province’s online booking system. We are working to make this available.

If you are turning 18 or older in 2021, you may be able to book an appointment for a second dose through a participating pharmacy.

You may need to provide information about your first dose (for example, what vaccine you got, where and when you got it).

For the 2nd AZ shot only…as I posted above if the first shot was before March 19…contact the pharmacy/surgery where you got the first and book an appointment. In some cases they may contact you first. We had ours on the 22 March, I expect to get a call from the pharmacy towards the end of this coming week or sometime the following week.

68% of people in Ontario have had at least 1 shot of vaccine. :thumbsup:

Our numbers continue to trend downward (fingers x'd). The government seems to be rolling out the re-opening plan cautiously enough, always with the proviso that things can turn around should cases spike. The message seems to be "Get vaccinated, then when we say it's ok, get out there and spend some money locally" which makes sense. For small businesses and clubs it's like trying to rebuild after a flood.
Active COVID cases continue to drop at a steady pace. https://www.ckom.com/2021/05/24/late...6466-vaccines/

The problem is they don't know which 68%.

I did see they're up to 190,000 per day now so hopefully the extra capacity is starting to get the second shots done where needed which is those above 60 or with pre-existing conditions.

This malarky of rushing to do 12 years old's is strange.

It sounds good, but I'll believe it when it really happens>

Every stage (1-4) is following by "at the earliest, depending on ...."

For now, I'm just looking at Stage 1, starting today ........... the "can eat inside or outside at a restaurant in groups of no more than 6", is the one that interests me :nod: :fingerscrossed:

Similar to Ontario then. https://www.ontario.ca/page/reopening-ontario (3 step.. theoretically mid August, but still some restrictions)

:banghead: When will it ever end! :D

For the little it is worth everything seems to have opened up here, sounds like Canada is maybe 3 or 4 months behind?

Nah...I doubt very much that Canada's covid deaths will ever catch up with America's.

They’re definitely spreaders but now they are saying that there is a chunk of over 80’s missed in Toronto who surprise surprise couldn’t get to vaccination centres.

Not Washington State ...... they've been going through the 4th wave, and resorting to offering free gifts if people will come and get vaccinated!
