NDP Urging Ford to Expand Eligibility For Fourth COVID-19 Shots

Interim NDP Leader Peter Tabuns says province needs to expand access to fourth shots to everyone.

Ontario's intertim NDP leader is calling on the province to announce a plan to expand access to fourth doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. 

Peter Tabuns says all residents need access to a fourth shot, in order to prevent the spread of the disease. 

"No one in Ontario wants to live through another rash of COVID-19 cases. No one wants our loved ones at risk of getting sick."

Last week, the National Advisory Committee on Immunization recommended provinces launch booster dose campaigns in the fall. 

Tabuns also says it's time for Premier Doug Ford to let Ontarians know what the plan is for expanding access to fourth doses.
