Ontario's vaccine plan dangerously off the mark, doctor says
Vaccinate those getting sick and bring vaccines to the factories and communal work settings — two changes Dr. Naheed Dosani says should happen to Ontario's vaccine rollout plan. Today, host Jayme Poisson speaks to Dosani about who is being left behind as dangerous COVID-19 variants take hold.
Premier Doug Ford has blamed Ontario's slow vaccine rollout on a lack of supply. But right now in the province, 1.6 million vaccine doses sit in freezers while millions of people remain unvaccinated — many of them young, racialized essential workers, who are more at risk from the new variants. Today, Dr. Naheed Dosani calls for a new vaccine strategy that prioritizes putting vaccines in the arms of the people who put themselves on the line for all of us.
