Cases of fully vaccinated shows need for boosters

Booster campaign in need of a boost, MDs say, Nov. 19

Four million doses in the freezer makes no sense when you realize that, each day, 40 per cent of those testing positive have been doubly vaccinated.

That’s a number easily found in the daily updates, but not mentioned.

They may not require hospitalization, but they are positive and can still spread the virus.

If that’s not a case for boosters I don’t know what is.

Now that children are able to be vaccinated, the overall percentage of vaccinations drops to seventy five per cent. With cases gradually rising since late October, we are far from seeing the end of this as our Conservative government has allowed, while vicariously supporting those who are anti-vaccination.

Let’s open the clinics to anyone at 168 days since their second jab, and, while we’re at it, enforce all restrictions on those not vaccinated.
