CA, 06 May 2021
Ontario Deputy Premier Christine Elliott is set to provide an update on the province's COVID-19 vaccination plan on Wednesday, alongside Solicitor General Sylvia Jones.
On Monday, Elliott said that added supply might allow the province to shorten the current four-month interval between the first and second shots of the vaccine.
The province expects to receive weekly shipments of more than 750,000 doses from Pfizer-BioNtech in May and more than 938,000 doses next month.
Ontario officials also confirmed Monday that the province has asked a federal vaccine advisory group to look into the possibility of mixing doses between the first and second shots.
