The province says a fresh influx of COVID-19 vaccines will allow it to expand eligibility for shots to all adults by the end of May. Health Minister Christine Elliott says changes are being made to the vaccine rollout as the province overcomes serious supply issues. They also include sending half of the vaccine supply to 114 “hot-spot” postal codes in the first two weeks of May — double the current allocation of 25 per cent. The change follows a recommendation by the government’s science advisers for more targeted immunizations to address high cases rates that are stressing hospitals.
