  REGINA The Government of Saskatchewan is attempting to clear up some of the confusion around how and when residents in Phase 1 of Saskatchewan’s Vaccine Delivery Plan can receive their COVID-19 vaccine shots. More than 80 per cent of long-term care residents and 75 per cent of personal are home residents in Saskatchewan have received their first dose so far. However, residents over 70 living independently have been left in the dark. We’ve been hearing from families that are concerned about their place in the vaccine rollout or the place of their loved one, NDP Health Critic Vicki Mowat said. The government’s had months now to figure out a vaccine plan that would work and what we’re finding is that it’s not a consistent plan and it’s being administered on an ad hoc basis.
