All Ontario long term care staff are going to be required to have at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine before they work today.
Staff who do not have at least their first dose or show medical exemption will not be able to enter a long term care home for work.
Today was originally set as the deadline which required all long term workers be fully vaccinated but the Ministry of Long Term Care has pushed the date back to December 13th.
