OTTAWA --
As Ottawa hits 70 per cent of adults fully vaccinated against COVID-19, the city's associate medical officer of health suggests Ottawa needs to get closer to 90 per cent to protect against the COVID-19 Delta variant.
On Saturday, the city of Ottawa announced 70 per cent of residents 18 and older have received both doses of their COVID-19 vaccine, and are now considered fully vaccinated. As of Friday, 69 per cent of Ottawa residents 12 and older were considered fully vaccinated.
Speaking on Newstalk 580 CFRA's Ottawa Now with Kristy Cameron on Friday, Dr. Brent Moloughney said Ottawa needs to continue to push the vaccination rates higher to protect against the more transmissible variants.
