Ontario government continues to work through the first phase of its coronavirus vaccination plan, questions are being raised about why regulated health professionals such as massage therapists and naturopaths are receiving shots as some people 80 and older are still lining up.“I encourage every public health unit: let’s make sure we get 80-plus over,” Premier Doug Ford said when asked about the issue during an unrelated news conference Tuesday afternoon.“Folks, let’s just get the 80-year-old-plus done and then we’ll move to the next stage … you can’t justify it.
Let’s start moving.”The comments seemingly contradicted what is being done in certain public health units, such as in York Region where the medical officer of health said they are.
