Last Updated Thursday, April 8, 2021 9:08PM EDT Nearly a year after the first infection was found in the province, Ontario reached a significant milestone in the fight against COVID-19 on Dec. 14, 2020. On that date, the first dose of a vaccine against the novel coronavirus was administered in the province. Now, as more doses become available and more needles go into arms across the province, many questions remain. Ontario is currently transitioning to Phase 2 of its vaccine plan.
60 and older: The province launched an online booking system for mass immunizations. Anyone 60 years of age who lives in a region using this booking system can now sign up for a shot.
