Nearly 36 per cent of adults in Manitoba have received a dose of the COVID-19 vaccine as of Thursday, provincial data shows.
But there are pockets where there are low turnouts and it s becoming a significant concern for Manitoba public health officials.
During a provincial technical briefing Wednesday, officials flagged the 10 areas with the lowest vaccine uptake. The top three regions were in southern Manitoba.
Only 6.1 per cent of the rural municipality of Stanley, of which Winkler and Morden are a part, have received at least one dose. Officials also flagged the city of Winkler specifically, as it has an uptake of 13.6 per cent.
