New Brunswick announced four new cases of COVID-19 on Tuesday and expanded eligibility for vaccines.
People 50 or older may now schedule an appointment online to receive their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine through the Horizon or Vitalité health networks or by contacting a participating pharmacy, said Dr. Jennifer Russell, the province s chief medical officer of health.
Anyone 16 or older with at least two chronic conditions, who may be more vulnerable to the effects of COVID-19, is also eligible, she said. I urge you to take whatever vaccine is offered.
Education Minister Dominic Cardy said all four approved vaccines represent a miracle of modern science and lashed out at the National Advisory Committee on Immunization, known as NACI, suggesting the national panel is undermining our decisions about which vaccines to take.
