Minto Mayor praises arrival of vaccine in the Wellington Dufferin Guelph Region

Mayor of the Town of Minto George Bridge is hailing the arrival of the Pfizer vaccine in the region as a step towards getting control of the pandemic.

He made this statement at the January 5^th Minto council meeting noting the arrival of 975 doses of the vaccine that had arrived in the day.

When the Ranch caught up with Mayor Bridge though he wanted to remind residents that this is only the start of a long vaccination journey.

“So I think we really have to make sure that people realize that even after we get a bunch of people with vaccinations we still have to wear masks, social distancing and do it all. It will take us past the summer maybe into September until we get everyone we need to get herd immunity going.”
