GUELPH A handful of family doctors in the Guelph area are starting to administer the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine to eligible patients as time is ticking before the supply expires. Nearly 30,000 AstraZeneca doses are being made available to doctors before their upcoming expiry date. After Apr. 2, they will have expired and can t be used, said Dr. Samantha Hill, Ontario Medical Association president. There really is a tight deadline around getting these very small quantities of doses out and into arms. Dr. Nicola Mercer, the chief medical officer of health for WDG Public Health, told CTV News on Wednesday that the region would receive 4,500 doses.

The school noted that the tests can provide results in about 15 minutes. The university said the province gave it 4,000 of the rapid tests.

On January 15th and 20th, two positive COVID-19 cases were confirmed in Laurentian’s residences. Despite what information Laurentian University has released to students, some key details have been left out.
Firstly, students have been wondering which residences the people infected reside in. Other universities– like Guelph and Western– are dealing with outbreaks, and both have revealed which residences the cases lived in.
So why not Laurentian?
With East, West, and Mature/Married Student Residence (MSR) as well as the federated universities’ residences operating, there are more than 500 students currently living on campus.
