Ontario's COVID-19 vaccine rollout could look different in each of its 34 public health units as the province receives more doses in the coming weeks, the government said Monday. Solicitor General Sylvia Jones said Ontario is "empowering" local health units to draw up their own specific plans to distribute the vaccine, and all have been submitted to the government for approval. Vaccine delivery will be different between communitiesJones said public health units must adhere to the provincial plan for priority populations but they can determine the best way to serve the needs of their communities. It also includes mass vaccinations sites, led by local health units, for residents aged 16-60, and mobile sites for high-risk groups. "It's worrisome that the government looks like they're planning to lay any problems at the feet of public health units, which is unfair," she said.
