VANCOUVER Weeks after long-term care staffers and health-care workers began receiving COVID-19 vaccinations, B.C. doctors are raising concerns about a slowdown in the process, but Fraser Health isn’t addressing them. Dr. Kathleen Ross, the former president of the Doctors of B.C., questioned the abrupt shutdown of a vaccination centre in New Westminster, revealing she didn’t know if it would resume. “After rapidly vaccinating over 1,200 frontline health-care providers in just under three days at (Royal Columbian Hospital), the process was shut down by (Fraser Health Wednesday night). No word on when we will protect our frontliners despite rising cases,” she tweeted to nearly 1,700 followers while tagging Fraser Health officials.
